You Better Damn Well Be Thankful for People Like This

I know I sure am.

Just read this except from CNN, and you’ll know what I’m talking about:

When a grenade bounced off his chest and fell to the floor near his fellow troops, Petty Officer 2nd Class Michael Monsoor acted out of instinct.

His actions didn’t stem from a lack of training. His instant reaction was to protect his comrades.

The Navy says he committed a selfless act — jumping on the grenade and taking the full force of the blast.

In a ceremony held today, he’ll be the first SEAL to (posthumously) receive a Medal of Honor for actions in Iraq.

No politics here; just wanted to use this space to say thank you, Michael Monsoor.
