Great speech, never heard a MOH claim sole responsibility and this warrior puts it into great words.

If you're short on time and want to skip the citation and presentation str8 to his speech, skip to 4:55, about 15 minutes

^^^ I particularly loved that part. We don’t want war. But if you want war, someone else will raise your sons and daughters. Powerful!

Thanks for linking that speech, enjoyed listening to it

I've been blessed enough to cross paths with several MoH recipients. To a man, all of them would floor you with their humility.

Dennis Thank You! That was the best 15 minutes I have spent in a very long time flag flag flag flag

Take aways: I did not know there was 1.5 Mil that have served in Iraq and I loved it at the end where he said something to the effect that we (America) do not want war and you (enemy) do not want war with America or somebody else will be raising your children!

15 minutes, I could listen to that Patriot for hours and consider it time well spent.

Dennis thank you for posting.
