:tpd: Real heroes! This reminds me of a MASH episode where a soldier had a live grenade lodged inside him but Hawkeye operated anyway and Burns was all frazzled about it. Except this is real. Like Peter said.

I've seen this before and it never gets easier to watch and do admire the brave men and women of our armed services.

Gotta love truthful reporting without a layer of varnish.

A good story for the morning. Thanks.

Amazing humility all around. Even the surgeon said for me to risk it once was nothing, as soldiers like Moss risk it every day. They are truly America's finest.

Prayers said every day for our soldiers. Guess this one was answered.

This is the kind of heroics that should be blasted out by our "news" organisations. Nope, makes the military look too good.

Thanks, guys and gals of the Armed Services, for protecting our freedom.

There are so many stories like these that We never see on TV or the so called "News". It sure make one wonder why.


We are most fortunate that Our Proud Military can do it's job and then some, without the support of these so called "pubic media" entities.

But, We as American Citizens can Support Them! :gn :wnr :usa

God Speed to Our Armed Forces!


Cheers! :chr
