In my opinion, these young men are deserving of our acknowledgement on a Hall of Heroes thread even though they are not in the military. Perceiving danger, they confronted it rather than seeking safety. They saved the lives of three young women, paying the ultimate price.
PRAYERS GOING UP FOR JON BLUNK, MATT MCQUINN AND ALEX TEVES!
These three young men saved the lives of their girlfriends by shielding them from gunfire at the Aurora Massacre.
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. (John 15; 13 KJV)
God bless these gallant young men! May their heroic souls rest in eternal peace and may perpetual light shine upon them. Prayers of condolence going up for their families and friends - may they find healing and consolation.
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever."
Psalm 23 -KJV

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Bravery without bounds can show at any time at any time. Yes indeed these three young men and any like them can be/should be considered protector of USA lives as in any combat situation.
