I can't even fathom what it must have felt like to see a couple of Taliban/AQ, carrying off one of my Brothers. I think SSG Giunta hit the nail on the head, when he said "I just happen to be the guy in the position that day".

Well deserved and certainly a humble stud. I wish him well along with all of his Soldiers.

I'm with you.. If I saw that.. I cant even imagine the RAGE that would fill my being.. Hell, I get angry thinking about it... and shudder to think of the outcome if Sgt Giunta hadn't seen them. Just like the brave men in battles of every conflict.. there are some who by fate or by disposition step into the annals of the history of our Country as heros. This young man represents all the BEST things about being an American Soldier..
