From a suggestion came something. Good job sir.

I am in awe of men like Urban, and the American soldier has proven time and again what antoher Medal of Honor Reicpient said, "Freedom is worth fighting for."

Sunday the AVA (American Veterans Award) aired on the History Channel. The Honoree was Actor Cliff Robertson who served in the Merchant Marines and was in every theater of combat. Was once MIA after his ship was sunk. Said in his acceptance speech "They asked if I would write a bit of prose....."

I did not get it word for word but it was a poem entitled,
"It was just my job" It was moving. And the Medal Of Honor men all said the same thing, I was just doing my job. The Police and firemen who rushed into the WTC on Sept 11th were just doing their jobs. The troops who beat the Taliban and were victorious in Iraq were just and are just doing their jobs.

Without men Like Urban freedom would have antoher meaning. In America it would be the symbol of hope and dreams not reality. Without leaders like LTC. Matt Urban there would not be those inspired to fight. Often it took just one man to move the troops to react and overcome. One man can accomplish more than he knows.

Thanks again for giving this attention SAMWolf.... I would like to add the following goto:

It is a petition for the USPS to honor Matt Urban with a Stamp as they did Audie Murphy.
