You're not missing much.
They do have some video up on the site. (At the URL I gave Kathy a minute ago.) ... But I didn't check to see which segments are there.
Hey....I just "talked" to you yesterday. LOL!! Did you have a good day?
I read the following on a newsletter, but I could not verify the source. Does anyone know if this is true. If so, this is the stuff Medal of Honor recipients are made of.
"Sgt. Rafael Peralta built a reputation as a man who always put his Marines' interests ahead of his own. He showed that again, when he made the ultimate sacrifice of his life Tuesday, by shielding his fellow Marines from a grenade blast.
"...Peralta, 25, as platoon scout, wasn't even assigned to the assault team that entered the insurgent safe house in northern Fallujah, Marines said. Despite an assignment that would have allowed him to avoid such dangerous duty, he regularly asked squad leaders if he could join their assault teams, they said.
"One of the first Marines to enter the house, Peralta was wounded in the face by rifle fire from a room near the entry door, said Lance Cpl. Adam Morrison, 20, of Tacoma, who was in the house when Peralta was first wounded. Moments later, an insurgent rolled a fragmentation grenade into the area where a wounded Peralta and the other Marines were seeking cover. As Morrison and another Marine scrambled to escape the blast, pounding against a locked door, Peralta grabbed the grenade and cradled it into his body, Morrison said.
"While one Marine was badly wounded by shrapnel from the blast, the Marines said they believe more lives would have been lost if not for Peralta's selfless act. 'He saved half my fire team,' said Cpl. Brannon Dyer, 27, of Blairsville, Ga."
