"A Debt that Can Never Be Repaid"

Posted by Bill

Michael Fumento pens a tribute to MOH recipient Michael Monsoor:

Spring 2006: The Mullab section of Ramadi, Iraq. Graffiti boast that this is "the graveyard of the Americans." Leaving your base camp virtually guarantees a fight, and I'm in one the first day of my embed. When shots ring out, I jump into the street to start snapping pictures. I look back and see a tall Navy SEAL seemingly pointing his 7.62 millimeter MK48 machine gun right at me.

In fact, he was protecting me as well as his teammates. SEALs don't wear identification - even on dress uniforms - and I would never have learned his name if, six months later, he hadn't sacrificed all to save those same teammates.
