Mr. Meyer seems like a class act and is no doubt feeling poorly about surviving while his friends fell, but he did good and honoring his fallen buddies shows his priorities are right.

 USA

I don't know who was running things in this area, but that snafu caused too many good boys to go down...why support was not nearby mystifies and angers me...but at least some people had the stones to react and try to save some people, so good on Meyer, Chavez and others who pitched in!

Maybe I'm completely naive as to the relationship between military and the Commander in Chief. But if I was receiving any kind of laudatory award from that piece of sh*t, it would chafe me to the bone.

That said, thank God for this young man and all like him.

Yeah, I would not be chatting him up, and would be eager to get the heck out of there.

Some people have a better tolerance level than I!
