I served with MSG Benavidez after Vietnam. He was a humble, professional man who always looked out for fellow soldiers. A genuine patriot! RIP, Roy.
this is a person they should make a movie for
I think #SonyPictures or #Netflix is doing it...
name of movie should be "Our Hero, Roy Benavidez"
But please lord don't have the Rock play him
He’s my grandmas cousin. He grew up with both my grandparents, I love hearing stories about him growing up
That’s so cool
I hope Hollywood someday makes a movie about this gentleman.
They should make a movie of MSS Benavidez... We all know why they haven't made it....
This man also at the end of his life would visit other veterans on Veterans Day in Audie L Murphy VA Medical Center in San Antonio. He was a humble hero. I believe Ft. Hood should be renamed for this man.
Renaming Fort Hood in honor of this man is an excellent idea. I intend to vocalize your idea to my friends on Facebook and with your permission state that I received the idea from your comment.
I believe that all of the statues erected in honor of soldiers from the Civil War, North and South, be displayed at Gettysburg positioned in their representative location of the forces they had joined and create a singular site where Americans could visit and learn the importance and profundity of their sacrifice from their own perspective.
Renaming Fort Hood is a great idea.
Fort Benevidez sounds fantastic to me.

I am proud to be part of a drill team in Edinburg Texas name after MSG Roy P. Benavidez. MSG Benavidez is A true patriot and a fighting killing machine. 🇺🇸
This is what is called a true American hero.
His Courage and love country and fellow soldier is beyond words.
Having never served I can only imagine what he speaks of , but if ever I was called I want to serve with Americans just like him.
For him I repeat for him his motto of Green Berets
De Oppressor Liber.
To you Sir and all others that served.
Thankyou for my Freedom , It's because of you service and Sacrafice that I can sit here and write this to you , I'm forever grateful and in your debt.
Best Regards Always

If we had more soiders like him we would truly have a blessed nation. Salute!!!!
I watched on Mr.Ballen's site here at You Tube a more detailed history of Mr.Benavidez. It is by far the most extraordinary story I have ever heard of a soldier's singular act of courage in any battle , anywhere at any time in history. Thank you for your service Mr.Benavidez. If any of us could be half the human being you were we should consider our life to be an honorable and successful achievement.
God Bless You Sgt Benavidez. You sir are a true AMERICAN hero.
sir l thank you so much for your bravery and service
A TRUE AMERICAN
I was wounded in the Vietnam war and I was mediivaced to go the Philippines and then Okinawa and then on my way home stopover at Chelsea Naval hospital in Chelsea Massachusetts

True American Hero
One Tough MAN!!!
Airborne all the way
The real life Rambo
Rambo is a sissy compared to Roy.its incredible what he did. God Bless him.
What a brave and dedicated soldier; truly deserving the CMoH!
The word Hero was invented for a man like this outstanding man! God Bless America. If we have men and women with heart, determination and love for fellow Americans like this man, we can never be beat! God Bless this man, his family, those who have served, those that do serve, those that will serve and God Bless Our Beautiful FREE Nation, WE need God now more than ever!
THEY NEED TO MAKE A MOVIE OF THIS MAN'S STORY !
This man is a hero among heroes! He served his fellow man with respect and dignity
Hell of a man!!!!!
Moves one to tears to hear of his experiences! A great American!
One BAD ASS HOMBRE!
What a great man. True definition of a Hero.
What an amazing storyteller! I think every child in America should have to listen to his story and be inspired❤
A Great and Humble Patriot ! I. Am Still Surprised That There has Never. Been a Movie Made About Him !
Roy Benavidez was no doubt deserving of the Medal of Honor and what a privilege it must have been to be presented the award by the greatest President this country has ever seen in Ronald Reagan, God Bless the both of them.
I'm surprised there's not a movie made outta him
Real hero
I love learning about MOA awardees and the act they did to earn the medal. MSG Roy Benavidez's story is incredible , amazing and makes me feel so insignificant because I didn't earn the freedom, liberties and rights I enjoy. He and all others that served this great nation have my utmost appreciation , respect, and my sincere welcome home soldiers wishes. God bless each and all and the USA..
The famous Roy Benavidez speech to this day gives me goosebumps. Rest in paradise Mr. Benavidez, may your legacy forever live on in America’s glory
If I could only have been a tenth of this man.
I want to see a movie about him already. I hope they do one day soon...I was stationed in Korea when I heard he passed away. I reenlisted and went to Ft. Bragg after I left Korea. He was an inspiration...God bless him and RIP...
VIVA LA RAZA SIEMPRE!!! 💪🏽🇲🇽💯

what a guy,never give up
Legends never die❤ he is with Jesus
Totally agree what a legend just love it
Hit twice by a Viet Cong sniper in the left leg and fragments in my stomach from a AK 47 rifle
Not to be snarky. In all seriousness, his story sounds like Forest Gump. The Vietnam scene where he rescued Bubba and Lt. Dan. His friend was black, he work with officers he saved everyone. Was Roy’s story the inspiration and how Forest got the MOH? Roys story brought me to tears. True American.
A true HERO!!! Thank you!
An American patriot.
He was one tough man. If ever a movie needed to be made about a soldier he is the one. A real life Special Forces MACV/SOG hero, not some fictionalized character named Rambo.
Thank you. RIP brother
Crying test...............I failed.
We stand on the backs of GIANTS. USMC 1983-89
Wow,,
"Semper-Fi"
TJ he was Special Forces not a jarhead.
Go Army!
🙏🏽♥️🇺🇸

❤🇺🇲❤
It took 13 years because he was Mexican
They claim it’s because on the location of this fight was classified military information,for 30 years
🫡🥲
No why He did all these things, Because hes native, and he doesn't even know it. The medicine was with him
He looks Native, Polynesian but I think he's Mexican
🇺🇸🙏
