a guy is shown being carried on a stretcher and shoots from the stretcher! they just showed it and Lester asked Craig if the guy hit what he was aiming at....Craig said yes. Hit twice he thought.

Is he the one who will be getting his 3rd Purple Heart? The reporter mentioned one of those guys is. Also got one in Mogadishu.

Texasbluebell, MSNBC just replayed the video complete with White's narration. The man who has previous Purple Hearts, one from Mogadishu, is the man getting his leg treated while standing and maintaining his position, aiming his weapon, while his leg is being treated. Craig White gave his name but I didn't write it down. The guy who moved the burning truck made it---my first viewing I thought he was leaping in a burning truck, but evidently the truck near it was on fire and he was moving this vehicle to keep it from being lost, too.

And they played again the part where Craig White says he was just about to take up arms himself when "the cavalry arrived". Whew.

The French need a Purple Heart for injuries incurred while jumping on our bandwagon.

Thanks for the update on the msnbc video. I still haven't seen the entire thing, but you've answered a few questions for me!
