I was in 3rd Ranger Battalion for 6 years and every time I hear this story I get goose bumps, not because of fear but because he makes me proud of being in 75th Ranger Regiment and how Americans act in situations like this.
Thank You SFC Leroy Petry for all you have done. After watching this video and the other I totally understand why you got the medal of honor. For all you have done you definitely deserve it. You are a very brave man.
Is it me or is Letterman being really disrespectful? He has no interest in what has to say, he's only interested in what he want's to know. No reaction to what he has to say about his kids, no reaction to him showing the memorial he has on his arm, just kept on asking questions, this guy is pissing me off.
Thank you for your service Ranger, I can only hope to be as great as you one day.
"I think every person reacts to it differently," he says. SFC Petry, my good fellow, you may just be a bit too modest for your own good. I have a unch you're one of very few people on PLanet Earth who has any idea how it feels to have a grenade explode in his hand.
@Atony94 - not to sure yet but they said they'll give me a ship out date when i graduate highschool... im still in highschool but ive got an 11x contract... so much p****y so little time XD
@The5admeets3vil lol nice, it's weird your recruiter didn't give you a ship date yet I'm still in highschool also and I got my ship date on my contract.
@JacksInn No, Rangers are not there to "Fuck You Up." They are there to move into an area quickly and achieve an objective, be it destroy something or to capture a high value target.
thats some deus ex shit on his arm ... soo fuckin cool
