Today, President Obama presented the Medal of Honor, posthumously, to Leslie H. Sabo, Jr.

"Spec. Leslie H. Sabo Jr. of Elwood City, Pa., was serving with U.S. forces near the village of Se San in eastern Cambodia in May of 1970 when his unit was ambushed and nearly overrun by North Vietnamese forces.

Comrades testified that the rifleman charged up from the rear, grabbed an enemy grenade and tossed it away, using his body to shield a fellow soldier. And shrugging off his own injuries, Sabo advanced on an enemy bunker that had poured fire onto the U.S. troops – and then, pulled the pin on his own grenade.
"It's said he held that grenade and didn't throw it until the last possible moment, knowing it would take his own life but knowing he could silence that bunker," Obama recounted. "And he did. He saved his comrades, who meant more to him than life." The award was given to his widow, Rose Mary.  Thus, after 40+ years, this hero receives the recognition he so richly deserved.  God Rest Leslie H. Sabo, Jr.
I'm just sayin'

And another thing.  How many have seen this in the MSM?  The US Special Forces and some Russian troops are doing a joint international exercise in Colorado.  Part of the scenario is the deal with a terrorist attack at Denver International Airport.  Now, to my way of thinking, President Putin is not exactly a trustworthy ally.  Why then are we sharing operational procedures and techniques with them?
