Medal of honor
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fodRf..._embedded#t=14

Would like to share this video with all of you. This a fellow soldier from the 10th Mountain division which I am a part of. This is what defines a true american hero folks. Please remember soldiers like SFC Jared Monti when we all start bickering back and forth over politics. It is because of good men and women like him that have laid down their life for us to be able to do so. God bless you and my prayers are with his family.

I just read the story on CNN. If we each read the story of each one of our boys or girls killed in this D$$n war, ( over 4,000 now) we would all shead a tear for their dying in the name of a shameless war. But we won't want to be inforntable would we....

BHO is destroying what this man fought to preserve. Watching this hero get recognized by a dirty politician makes my stomach turn.

Anyway, rest easy Jared. Your country--indeed the world--owe you immeasurably. I pray you're basking in God's love at this moment.

I have a tremendiuos amount of admiration for FSGT Jared,he did the right thing at great personal sacrifice,no man could have done more!
He displayed great personal courage and spirit,he is a true hero imo.
I wonder what became of the soldier he was trying to rescue,his name now escapes me.

Has anyone heard of what happened to the man he tried to rescue?
