    I got to meet Dakota at an Associated General Contractor’s lunch. The room was kind of quiet, not everyone was familiar with him. He gave his talk and took questions and the room was quiet so I asked if he still greases his own Bobcat. Then he related the story about being on Letterman and got a few more laughs since it was construction related. I brought a poster with first day of issue Marine Corps stamps and asked him to sign it. He’s so humble he signed it really small so as not to cover any of the other pictures even though he belongs shoulder to shoulder with those Marines.

    Brings tears to my eyes. I lost my beloved brother several years ago. He was 30+ years in the army. He loved America and his men loved him. There was no room for the many that came to his funeral and big men cried. The Lord guided him through 2 wars. God please touch America and show us Your will.

    As an Australian, all I can say is thank you for your service. Thank you, Dave, for the respectful way you spoke. Take every salute you get, and just remember-while it may be an honor for others to salute you, the true honor is yours. You’re saluting on behalf of your comrades in arms….

      Good to hear you were treated kindly, sir. I was just old enough to have been in the first and last two draft "lotteries" (what a weird term, right?) and never got called, but I was trying in the meantime to sign on to the Navy and Coast Guard, uh....,no way. My oldest brother served in the USS Long Beach and Enterprise in Tonkin Gulf. My only claim to fame is that I wasn't going to claim 'CO', get fitted with braces, etc. nor run away to Canada. Big deal I know. And YES it was a shame the way returning Vets were treated or talked about by those of our own generation. Those were weird and unpleasant times, IMO. All the best.

    He was so stiff when he first walked out, but then he was hilarious in the seat. Chatty and witty, until the 15:00 mark, when it turned really dark. Dave was slick, immediately changing the subject to something positive.
    Also, when a MoH recipient asks you to have a beer, you say yes, AND you buy the beer.

      When he said "we'll leave it at that" Dave knew to steer that convo somewhere else immediately. He truly knows when to stop asking certain questions, and too many people today don't have that ability.

    As the niece of a USMC Korea and Vietnam combat vet, thank you for everything you do. My uncle passed away almost a year ago and was buried at Arlington. He's the only family member to serve in the USMC...everyone else was Army or Air Force. My uncle never talked much about his experiences but for me, the USMC will always be the best branch.

      talking about his eyes - the look in his eyes is chaotic and stressed out. the way he looks around the room all the time, gives me the vibe that he is always in stress to look out for enemy because it was a 24/7 life out there far away from home. and ofc that battle where he acted as a hero must have had a huge effect on him in a bad way.

    Wow Sergeant Dakota Meyer. Thank you for your service and thank you for what you did over there. My dad was a pilot in World War II and I had. Nephew who was in Iraq as well, but my dad’s gone and my nephew is gone. My Dad was in the Army Air Force as a pilot, my nephew In the Army as a sharpshooter.

    I can see the sadness in his eyes that he did all he could do but asks himself every night why he could not do more to save his comrades. So often you hear I wish it was me and not them. We hold up as a hero in which he is but in his mind he would have been a hero if he saved all his men. Grant yourself peace that one day you will high five your men and they will say you gave your all. Its ok.

    Dakota is a nice young man and a true American Hero. You should look up the story of his heroism and why he got the medal of honor.

    So much respect for this young man. His story is very much like stories in Vietnam. Like how did they know they were coming, why no air strokes and why did the artillery stop.

    Two commisioned officers that didn't send the air support desperately needed were given letters of reprimand that effectively ended their careers. Meyer said that he wasn't a hero,he is haunted that his friends were killed. He later worked for a defense company that dumped him when he spoke out against them selling advanced night optics equipment to Pakistan. The equipment was better than was used by the military at that time.
