The question should be what the hell were they doing in Iraq?
Read and watch the link, Jack Off.
Pulling themselves, no doubt.
I did you chicken hawk liar You did not! no one called shooting at the enemy heroism in the link
"A hail of gunfire"?
Oh, I see. First the boys destroyed both the wind-shield and the driver by their "hail of gunfire" ...... then the CO (or equivalent) inspected the wind-shield and driver to determine they were "blown away" then dashed off to sufficient cover so the bomb could detonate? Yeah, sure!
"Final stand"? Oh, sod off! How many times did the driver try to breach the gate? Is this story meant for kindergarten children maybe?
"For their actions"? This is too silly. Either it was their job to guard the gate or it wasn't. All they did was point their rifles and pull the trigger. Were they trained as custodians of the latrine (without weapons) and were just standing in for the real guards?
So says the stolen valor wanna be

No, this is about honoring their sacrifice. Did they teach you to read when you were young?

My point stands
It's a childish narrative and saturated with BS. The guys did the only thing they could have done, no forethought, they didn't know the truck was going to explode, and they didn't exclaim "God bless America" as they pulled the trigger. They probably said, "Oh, ****!" Let me repeat myself ..... the story is childish and it makes a serious & unfortunate incident laughable. Oh, and it is subjective - "last stand"? Give me an f-ing break. How is that not subjective? It isn't even factual.
My point stands
Let me try to make something clear because you don't seem to be old enough or experienced enough in order to "get it". If I were the parents of those boys I'd find the editor of that article and knock him on his ass. The person who gave the order to print that piece of shyt probably watched Joan Wayne in "The Alamo" and that's all.

Let's start with "last stand".
I don't give a rat's ass what you do.
You don't know what you are talking about.
My motive is called "truth".
I am a Vietnam War veteran so you can cut the crap, Bonzo. There were guys in Vietnam who got the bullet or shrapnel while on SBD and they got the purple heart. I have no problem with that because it was "in action". But I thoroughly detest political propaganda and that is what "last stand" lie represents in this friggin' article . Those boys who died and their parents deserve better than that.
Did you write that article? Political/patriotic exaggeration only serves to diminish the loss of those boys and perpetuate the bull shitia that makes people think Joan Wayne was a hero ….. not an actor.
