    So something we should have made clear and we're getting lots of comments on, he received those award for his actions and in 1981 Benavidez's Distinguished Service Cross was upgraded to the Medal of Honor.

    My father was a Major in the 5th SF with Staff Sargeant Benavidez in that battle. My father was injured in the face and had to be shipped to Hawaii and they didn't see each other until 1990. I dad invited me to a 3 hour diner at a fancy steak resturuant and got to enjoy them going over their time together in Vietnam. A very humble person.

    Benavidez was eventually awarded the Medal of Honor. When President Reagan presented him the medal during a ceremony on February 24, 1981, he turned to the press and said "If the story of his heroism were a movie script, you would not believe it."

      Where bodies lie piled
      Hides his emotions
      His blood is running cold
      Just like his victories
      His story unfolds
      Bright, a white light
      If there'd be
      Any glory in war
      Let it rest
      On men like him
      Dead men will never come back
      Crosses grow on Anzio
      Where no soldier sleeps
      And where hell is six feet deep
      That death does wait
      There's no debate
      So charge and attack
      Going to hell and back
      A man of the 15th
      A man of can do
      Friends fall around him
      And yet he came through
      Let them fall face down
      If they must die
      Making it easier
      To say goodbye
      Bright, a white light
      If there'd be
      Any glory in war
      Let it rest
      On men like him
      Who went to hell and came back
      Crosses grow on Anzio
      Where no soldier sleeps
      And where hell is six feet deep
      That death does wait
      There's no debate
      So charge and attack
      Going to hell and back
      Oh gather 'round me
      And listen while I speak
      Of a war where hell is six feet deep
      And all along the shore
      Where cannons still roar
      They're haunting my dreams
      They're still there when I sleep
      He saw crosses grow on Anzio
      Where no soldier sleeps
      And where hell is six feet deep
      That death does wait
      There's no debate

    Yes, I SAW the Predator in the scene just prior to the attack on the SF team began!
    That said, Roy Benavidez is a true, real life hero who would likely kick the Predators fictional butt! His is one of the most remarkable stories I've ever heard and it humbles me every time I hear or read about it.
    It should be noted that he was actually in church services when he overheard the radio call in the next tent over. Also, though properly depicted on the video but not mentioned is that in his haste to get out to the ambush site, Roy forgot his M16 and jumped initially unarmed from the Huey into the battle!
    Great video as always.

    So here’s 2 things u forgot to mention. He had a bullet wound to the stomach that later exposed his intestines. And the reason why he was put in for the distinguished service cross instead of the Medal of Honor was because his commanding officer thought he wasn’t going to live to see it, since the Medal of Honor process is much longer then the distinguished service cross process. Still nice video!

    In case you didn’t think he was tough enough, before all this he had stepped on a land mine and messed up his back to the point where his doctor told him he would never walk again. He begged them to not discharge him and give him a chance, and he would secretly fall out of bed every night and stand and put pressure on his legs until he could walk again. Also, I’m pretty sure he was holding his own intestines in by the time he got on the chopper.
