YouTube Video of SEAL Michael Monsoor's Funeral
Navy SEAL Michael Monsoor received the Medal of Honor post-humously after throwing himself on top of a grenade, in Ramadi, to save the lives of his fellow soldiers.
Fellow SEALs who atteded the funeral took their own tridents off of their chest and slapped them onto the top of Monsoor's casket.
Folks, Monsoor is the true definitition of a hero.

Old People, like me, may not be around to witness the destruction of our Nation. The rest of you may not survive the collapse. We all have the sworn duty to prevent it.

He was a local boy, the son of a Marine.
For every one hundred men you send us,
Ten should not even be here.
Eighty are nothing but targets.
Nine of them are real fighters;
We are lucky to have them, they the battle make.
Ah, but the one. One of them is a warrior.
And he will bring the others back.

I learnt about this from a friend of mine who was in ST7 some time back. What a selfless act, truly amazing.
For those interested , Discovery channel did a doco on following a class through BUD/s, its called 'class of 234'. I'm 99.9% sure that this SEAL warrior is on that program going through the BUD/s course.

"It's a great life. You risk your skin catching killers and the juries turn them loose so they can come back and shoot at you again. If your honest , your poor your whole life. And , In the end , you wind up dying all alone on some dirty street. For what? For nothing. For a tin star."
Far from being a handicap to command, compassion is the measure of it. For unless one values the lives of his soldiers and is tormented by their ordeals , he is unfit to command.

Such a selfless act to put your teammates lives above your own. That can never be repaid but always remembered.
