    My neighbor when I was a kid, was Duane Dewey. He also received the Medal of Honor for throwing himself on a grenade while serving as a Marine in the Korean war. He was getting care for his wounds from being hit by an earlier grenade. He and his fellow gunner were in a pit made by a different explosive when a grenade landed next to him. He yanked the corpsman to the ground and threw himself over the grenade and said something like "Doc, I've got it in my hip pocket", and it went off.
    He had such a sense of humor, and I loved hearing his personal account of it (what he could remember that is). He had a place down state and one next to us upstate. He'd invite his friends over to drink homemade wine and play every sort of instrument around a campfire. He at some point would be asked to tell his story. I must have heard it dozens of times over the years but never got tired of hearing it.
    While it did some major damage to his body, he saved several lives that day. After a lengthy recovery, he was able to walk and for the most part live a normal life. The president said when presenting the medal to him, "You must have a body of steal".
    RIP CPL Dewey.

    Kyle is a very composed man and Marine. He enlisted in the Marine Corps for all of the right reasons including to unselfishly serve others. The brotherhood and sense of obligation to each other can be very strong in the Marine Corps. I am blessed to have been able to serve 21 years in the Marine Corps and Marines like Kyle continue the lineage of our lore.

  • @thumper7047
    @thumper7047 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    I can relate only in the blacking out and worried about how my mom would feel. I woke up in Bethesda Naval Hospital in ICU when I woke, and they showed my mother in. I was so excited to see her and yet I saw the look on her face and I was feeling so bad. It was obvious she was hold back. I had no idea how bad I looked. Then they escorted her out. I couldn't talk and I wanted to cry and ask her to stay with me a little longer. Later on, during recovery, the doctor asked if I was in any pain. I was so strung up on pain meds, I honestly answered, "I don't know, I can't see my mother's face." - I gaged how bad things were by the look on her face and when she went behind the curtain, I couldn't see her face to know if I was in pain. LOL, that became a joke between her and I. I did not get the MoH as I did nothing heroic. I received some medals and was sent home and receive 100% VA Disability for the rest of my life. So, I can relate a little to his story. - Just in the recovery and the worry. He was in Walter Ried, I was in Bethesda. I was in and out of ICU for many months and recovery for 2 years. War sucks. Like him, I also still have the scars to my face and my left back/shoulder. I hate to be in pictures and have low self-esteem. The VA has me on all sorts of stuff... He is a much better man then I as he seems to take ti better then I do.

  • @thumper7047
    @thumper7047 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

    A little back story - I worked as a teacher and was always a afraid the kids (they can be cruel) would make fun of my scars to my face. But after they got to know me, they seemed to not notice. One morning the school had an idea that on Veterans Day (or maybe it was on Memorial Day), that they would have me read that over the announcements through the school that morning. I know it by heart, and I was reading it loud and proud like in the song, but when I got towards the end, it was obvious I was starting to struggle. I felt a tear roll down my cheek. Our announcements are shown over a school-wide Television, so I know all the students saw this strong veteran cry. But I made it to the end. Again, I thought they would laugh and point, but for days, all the kids would see me and come running up and give me a hug and thank me and asked if I was okay. I miss those kids (today they are adults).

      It seems to be mostly the younger generation today in 2024 that show such disrespect for everyone not saying my generation did have our own disrespectful moments I'm in my 40s but I feel most of the people I grew up with had a line we wouldn't cross. Maybe I'm seeing things asked because I was raised to show kindness to everyone but your story is beautiful and makes me all the sadder that I see so many younger people today being so cruel and hateful

    All our veterans deserve respect and recognition and their families also. Occasionally you have a military, individuals that goes above and beyond thinking only of their brothers and sisters, for this they need to be recognized, especially if they are injured in the effort. God bless all our veterans past, present, And future. You are the backbone that keeps us free. Freedom is not free, 🇺🇸 there always will be a price to pay, And individuals that are willing to pay it. God bless our Republic. 🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏿🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸

    I am a female veteran, never served in a war zone, but so very proud to have served and to have served with some who did serve in war zones. Medal of Honor recipients are a special breed of people and to many Americans have forgotten the sacrifices of veterans who have fought and died or been severely injured so that they can go out and freely demonstrate against whatever they want to! They do not appreciate the sacrifices made so that they can continue to enjoy all the wonderful freedoms we enjoy. We have become a very selfish nation!

    “Patriotism is a word which always commemorates a robbery. There isn’t a foot of land in the world which doesn’t represent the ousting and re-ousting of a long line of successive ‘owners,’ who each in turn, as ‘patriots,’ with proud swelling hearts defended it against the next gang of ‘robbers’ who came to steal it and DID - and became swollen-hearted patriots in THEIR turn.” -- Mark Twain

    Based on your comments on the clip, I know you would very much enjoy two movies that are both true stories, "Hacksaw Ridge" and "Taking Chance". I don't think you do movie reviews but these are movies you would enjoy for your own watching. There are a lot of good military related movies out there but I believe these are the best simply because they are true stories.

    Please consider watching his interview on David Letterman. You see a bit more personality (not a different one, this man is unbelievable). It's an interview so it's not as produced as this is. It also goes into the hardships he dealt with along that 3 year journey he mentioned. I believe this first premiered during one of the super bowls. I hope thumper is suggesting the David Letterman one, and I definitely suggest the seal/Jessica Buchanan if he hasn't already.

    The top story in the world this week was the release of Julian Assange from prison, the heroic Wikileaks journalist/publisher. He has arrived back home in Australia, a free man. Julian sacrificed nearly 15 years of his life, enduring conditions that amounted to torture, to protect *freedom of the press.* Without a free press, democracy cannot survive. I know it's a bit out of your comfort range, but perhaps you'll consider reacting to Assange? There are hundreds of videos on social media.
