Whilst I have respect for those that represent our country, I tend to think (perhaps quite ignorantly) that those that serve in the forces, know and accept the risks that they face every day, however, this story is one of a soldier that acted in a way that just defies words......

Truly amazing and it's when you hear of things like this that you hope that there is a better place in the after-life.

wow, hard to imagine being in that situation and being able to do something so heroic, RIP that man

Would risk my life to save others in a firefight but even i dont know if i could do what that guy did.

RIP from a fellow Soldier

Now THATS the sort of thing that deserves an OBE not being some poncey footballer.

RIP to a hero.

 

why would he deserve an obe when he's from the usa shurly it would be the purple ring or what ever they give them

 

wow. r.i.p

 

Its people like this who keep us all enjoying the way of life that we have today.. Its really F*cks me off when you hear of these anti war people damaging war memorials over the world... ok they may not agree why we are at war and we would all love for the world to be at peace but come on, give these guys and girls your respect... Rip

 

Word Hero gets baded about a lot but he is definitely one. Not sure anyone could honestly say they'd do the same but i've got so much respect for that guy, amazing bravery.

RIP

 

truely amazig courage. dont think i could do that. R.I.P
if we all could be like that at some point in our life the world would be a better place.

 

Well said. RIP
