What a heartwrenching story. Thank you for the link. At first I thought you were talking about a story Sam mentioned earlier to me, but that was a Royal Marine, not one of our own. Here is the link to that story. Our soldiers and our allies raise wonderful men.

By the time I finished that story I'd just lost it. I think he deserves the MOH. For the life of me I don't understand why the media insists on focusing on soft core S&M porn from grab-an-Arab prison instead of telling the stories of the extraordinary men and women who willingly sacrifice for our nation. These are not dull stories, they are heart-wrenching and inspiring.
