For those of you who have served, for those of you who haven’t.
If you look up the word HERO in the dictionary, this is the face you will see staring back at you.

Thank you for the comments and the link Jason. I agree, “quitters never win, and winners never quit.” – no truer words have ever been spoken.
Thanks for sharing Jim..Did some research on this incredible man and found out he stepped on a land mine 3 years earlier was paralyzed from the waist down and was told he would never walk again! I also found a video of him giving a speech in new Orleans in 1991..This amazing man was full of humor and lived by duty honor and country check out http://www.davesdroppings.com and see first hand from the man himself
thanks again
Well said, both of you!
Great film, great story, but most of all … great man!
It goes to something I heard long ago that probably has meaning only to those who have served – “you join out of patriotism, deploy out of a sense of mission, but you fight for the guy next to you.”
Tango-Mike-Mike exemplifies that axiom, and it is very fitting indeed that Special Forces have adopted that phrase to denote dire circumstances.
Thank you for sharing this.
Yes indeed.
