With the engine dead, the rear gate would not open. The men had to climb out of the hatch one by one, still taking small-arms fire

That needs to be fixed immediately.

These are brave Marines that survived the onslaught of Islamofacist savages outnumbering them. They all deserve the Congressional Medal of Honor for their bravery, heroism and valor.

SEMPER FI!!

Another posting said that drug paraphenalia has been found in some of their captured rats' nests. That would go a long way to explaining their behavior.

May God rest all of the Hero's who bravely fought and died for their people. This story is amazing, it also goes to show how much better 15 of our Marines are than dozens upon dozens of guerillas.

“There was a guy in a headscarf with an AK47 standing there looking at me, so I shot him.”

Music, pure music.

And while our men perform brilliantly, the media traitors continue to peddle defeat.

I love our troops, and hate the media more, every day.
