I would like to pay my respect to these man and woman in the army serving his/her country....But why IRAQ? where is the weapon of mass destruction?...
I was in this BN when it happened. Happened to be coming back from a patrol in the same neighborhood when it happened. For "the rest of the story" an Iraqi platoon led by special forces went back in to the area later and all we're killed in an IED rigged house.
This man is a true hero. Along with thousands of other men and women that are serving our country. So why would you post crap that is irrelevant and absolutely NOT needed whenever this man did something that you would never even think of doing, which is thinking of others. So if you don't mind, shut the fuck up!
I want to thank you for you and all the men and woman that do what you do to protect our country !!!! Maybe these dumb asses that posts these unappreciated comments needs to carry their scared asses over there and then let's see if they feel the same way !!!!! Thanks again !!!!!!!!
@halochief165 I would agree with you if saddam was a al queda finder unfortunatly he was not since the us has deployed in Iraq (2003) al queda influence has spread, not diminished, more chapters have opened up than ever before. This is not the soldiers fault, it is brain dead politicians who wanted glory and had no clear plan to stabilize the region after we had won.
THANK U SO MUCH FOR SERVING AND PROTECTING OUR COUNTRY!!! WHEN I TURN 18 IN 4 YEARS IM ENLISTING TO THE MARINES!! ITS PEOPLE LIKE U WHO ARE TRUE HEROS!!
Infantry and combat arms.....unless you've lived the life a grunt you could never possibly understand what the word sacrifice truly means. HOOAH SFC Lara!
You guys are idiots this man and every man deployed in our military is a true hero. You think you know whats going on but you clearly dont. Our own men are going over and getting killed by the thousands to keep your freedom. Show some effin respect.
Thank you for your service and bravory I can't wait to join myself. When it all comes down to it half of these people leaving rude comments couldn't even come close to what this man has done since they could never be so brave and sit at there computers all day.

I know I'm not a strategic advisor but the Americans did well to get the hell out of iraq before getting in a much bigger shit pot, and having their arses kicked
I think people who are in this argument forget about the 3000 united states civilians who were murdered in cold blood in 2001. Don't get me wrong I'm not some redneck who thinks all Muslims should die. But we attacked the source of the terrorist group and a major source of their funding, aka saddam. I think that the united states government did not instigate a military operation in hopes of getting oil from the middle east. I think it's sad that so many innocent people have died on both aides
Fucking scared, pussy ass cowards leaving horrible comments on this hero's story- fuck off and die. This man wasnt a scared little girl and stepped up to serve his country. Y watch this video if u hate the military so much? My guess is that y'all actually think the military is cool but are just too scared to serve.
oh yeah taking lives to save lives i guess that makes everything ok ;) great job idiot. i guess you can justify your idiotic thought process when does one persons life mean become more valuable than another?? every man is created equal.
@cglives It is what "does not make sense" that will make sense one day but what is coming is too terrifying to relate on the evening news. I am thankful too for our troops.
America forever, I don't give a shit if were in that shit hole forever, our soldiers will always win. These brave men deserve everything for what they've done and some people don't even acknowledge them for it.
Irish, that's one of the stupidest things I have ever heard in my entire life. Your ignorant and full of shit. Don't ever try to spread your lies to me. Fuck you
@Wabanimkee That's one of the biggest problems! What is going down in the Middle East has a lot more to it than what you hear about in the press. It sure isn't just about oil or any one terrorist group. Right or wrong I am not the one to judge but the hidden agenda is leading up to much worse troubles. Then we will be grateful for our troops and their many sacrifices. Sorry if you don't see this and maybe one day you can direct your anger at a better target.
@Me3849 remember one thing son!!! this life i am living now does not belong to me and neither does yours. if God ordains me to live in a poverty ridden country than so be it , if that is his wish. but no man protects me no man!!!! only God. the fight in iraq is man made and not devine. people killing each other is man made and not devine. if this country is based on a God than why are we attacking instead of defending??? its over oil and you know it get over your self righteouness.
@CheckMateyGB What are you talking about, maybe in call of duty they call in a bunch of airstrikes but not in real life. And while I am against the war, and some troops do comit acts of brutality against civilians doesn't mean all of em are like that
@TheBoong3y its happens because the us military kills people over there even little children they are ordered to go in and kill women and children. what the phuck would you do???
@Wabanimkee With God all things are possible!! We will do what we can until God sends in His reinforcements....that's Jesus and the Armies of Angels. I know you think that comment is funny and trite. Just remember one of His lowliest servants shared that information with you!! Not one word of the prophets shall be left undone.
@floriofpt In regards to a raging psychotic soldier hunting me down... they can feel free to try. I'll happily blow their brains out though. I should not have to pay for the mental instabilty of another human being, which would be especially ironic seeing as they are fighting for American freedoms, speech being one off them.
Me stating my opinion is freedom. A contradictory psychotic deserves nothing less than a bullet in the head if they go after someone who is demonstrating their freedom.
@floriofpt Riding Saddam was the only thing worth-while that the military has done in the Middle East. That is not why we originally entered the Middle East though. We entered it originally to fight a useless war on terrorism that cannot be won.
With that said, my arguement is in regards to the troops current and continuous presence that is serving absolutely no purpose.
@max4ever23 War is an ugly thing isn't it? Do you remember the World Trade Centers in New York City? That was pretty ugly too. Lot's of children and women and men wiped off the face of the planet. Evil isn't it?
@irishsetterarchie and who said the 9/11 was good ? this war have nothing to do with 9/11 is about power and OIL been like 10 years if they wanted to get the cunt bin laden they could because they helped him way back against the soviet you people are brainwashed.
@max4ever23 Maxrever23 I agree with you to a point, 9/11..oil..bin laden...it's not just about that as the press would have us believe. The part I disagree with is your comment that I am brainwashed!! Max, the real agenda is so big and so terrifying hardly anyone is willing to talk about it.
Sargent Lara is not the only soldier with good intentions who feels like he dedicated himself to a good cause. It is really sad, but to the elite that dreamed up these wars he is just another piece of dog meat.
I feel sorry for these men who have sacrificed themselves in an immoral , illegal, unjustifiable war based on lies, while our Constitution dies and our country is looted by international bankers and wall street.
God bless him and all the other soldiers. wetger they are in bahgdad or done the street buying gas, respect them. and all u dumbasses tht keep sayin how bad they are, just shuy ur crybaby immature mouths. theyr 10 times the person u could ever hope to be. so thank you one last time vets
Apart from the little piece of metal that they pin on your chest, you also get a nice little gift that keeps on giving... DU!
Yes, thank you for serving your country. Now go enjoy the rest of whatever is left of your life as your DNA sizzles in the frying pan. Birth defects among veterans' children is way up. Birth defects among Iraqi children in Fallujah are up by a factor of 15!
Why would the men who run the US expose our soldiers to DU when they KNEW how harmful it is?
@rpravak Probably for the same reason they exposed the Viet Nam vets to agent orange. Here's an even more profound question...Why would the men who run the US expose our soldiers to WAR when they know how harmful it is? The answer is no doubt why our troops serve willingly in the first place.
former army here 2/19 SFG (A). IMO that man is a beast. God bless him and the rest of our brothers and sisters fighting the good fight. for the rest of you haters....shut up or pick a riffle and walk the walk. That is all.
Happy Veterans Day to all the Vets! I am depressed on how the government treats you all. You should earn more respect then what teh government gives. I am Currently enrolled in my schools AFJROTC. i am on the Drill team and the Marksman team. I am going into the armed forces after high school. Sempir Fi and Hoorah to all the Vets!
Sergeant Peter Lara is definitely a hero. He walked straight into hell with his head up and ready to give his life for his men and his country. No matter what all the viewers who are sitting in their little safe bedrooms right now think about the war or terrorism or anything else does not change the fact that this guy experienced one of the wildest things imaginable for his country. He will be honored by me and if he himself happens to see these comments, I just want to say "THANK YOU".
Idk if I heard that right but I think he said he put one of his soldiers infront of him and the soldier got shot and fell to the ground. If tht is what happened I'm wondering what n the hell was that kid thinking when he was told to get infont. Respect for the brave but that I think is some stupid shit.
@dschadrac83 It was necessary and the soldier who fell was following his orders. This nameless person gave his life to protect his unit. There is no greater sacrifice than this. I am glad you brought this up because I heard it and had to think it through myself. The soldier who fell is indeed a great hero.
i cannot believe some of the comments that i am reading. Iff you dont support our troops GET THE FUCK OUT OF THIS COUNTRY cuz you don;t deserve their protection.
@flaank Thank you, Veteren's day and people are going to bash our men. If you don't like it, you don't have to live here. Regardless of your position in the war, they are out there, not you.
@flaank Not gonna happen. Terrorism isn't a credible threat, and certainly not one that justifies killing innocent brown people in two countries and spending trillions in the process. Nine eleven was just an excuse to hand over more tax dollars to corporations so they could benefit. America is a police state and you don't realize it.
@Antiks72 Well, we have that in common! Hope we can all find a way to make this world a better place. My Great Grandmother was full blooded Cherokee. I often wonder what life was like for her and for the Cherokee Nation....all American Indian Tribes. Every generation struggles just in different ways. When will it all end?
@CheckMateyGB Dont you dare act like you know every single soldier or citizen in america. There are those who fight to protect their families, friends, and those who from terrorist attack similar to 9/11, we fight to protect anyone else from getting hurt in our country. We fight to protect the new bonds we share with our fellow soldiers and new found brothers and sisters. Unless you personally have been in a fight like this you will never know what its like. You hate the government, not soldiers
@ChrisD881 This is the fallacy the soldiers believe in though. That they are "protecting" someone. This is the psychological aspect that befalls onto every soldier, and the government exploits it fully.
The soldiers are just as responsible as the government is. They need to evaluate their pride and egos from another perspective, and they will find the war they are fighting is accomplishing nothing other than pain, suffering, debt, and the creation of much more vengeful terrorists.
@corpralj3 It's not so much protecting as retaliating as the saying goes suffering breeds more suffering. But they are still fighting for our country and for the other countries a bit you have to respect that thats what Veterans Day is about.
Hey "corpral"...(corpOral) Your a boot bitch who needs to watch your mouth. Not gonna respond to this again but i think, maybe.... Just a little bit, but through that pain and suffering the Iraqi civilians are much better off than when Saddam was in power. And that Fact is not up for argument.
Check yourself before some psychotic vet goes on a rampage to find you.
the communists in power over here (republicans and democrats) are a bunch of assholes. sending our soldiers over to the middle east for their own greed. when will the people realize that the officials in power here are the true enemies. the government has been taking control of everything little by little and no one gives a shit..
@irishsetterarchie I don't support troops (as troops) who have chosen to fall victim to our government's explotation, at the cost themselves, their family, and the US government.
Though I do support them as human beings, as troops they are making a conscious decision to fight a useless war that cannot be won. The only thing that comes from this war is pain and suffering... that is what a don't support. Nor do I support the financial burden it may have on me or this country.
@irishsetterarchie You're fooling yourself. The enemies don't have a doorstep. They operate anywhere, any time, and any place they please. Therefore they cannot be purged from their land.
You believe terrorist are much worse than they really are. How many terrorist attacks have occured in the US since 9/11? None. If terrorist were as bad as they are made out to be, they are plenty capable of setting off bombs in the USA on a daily and/or weekly basis.
@Funlu Trust me. Any idiot can rig up some bombs and set them off in populated areas.
These "big bad terrorists" could be downing American airliners at will right now. There are huge loopholes in airport security that I'm sure you have no clue of.
Beyond that, it's not too difficult to poison a fair quantity of food across multiple states within the same timeframe.
On the simplest level, anyone with a machine gun could kill hundreds of people in a major city with ease.
wtf is wrong with people all theese pussys sitting in their moms basement playing call of duty think they fucking deserve an opinion...get a fuckin life you losers
I thought the music was appropriate....and thanks for sharing that. No Call of Duty/Modern Warfare could truly appreciate what a soldier has to go through. Thanks for that. Made my Veteran's Day.
Ever believe in something so much above yourself, you will rise above pain, fear, and hate to achieve it? If you don't your enemies will.....God Bless The United States Army, Navy, Marines, and my alma mater Air Force. Ours is not to reason why....ours is but to do or die....
@max4ever23 your so full of shit what kind of person asks an american soldier how many innocent people have you killed????? That's a question to ask the taliban retard.
Oppose the war war in Iraq, but not the soldiers who fought and bled in it. They're out there fighting, ur not, which gives you not right to criticize.
man i must say that i realy didnt realize how brave u have to be to give your life for our country i have considerd joining the military and i no that im a real man but i am inclined to question if i would do somthing like that for everybody i mean just think about all the ass holes in this country and some of them i wouldent give clean piss 4 but my life .... very brave all the soilders that served happy v day much honer to our boys over seas HOOAH!
@lovelorna81 It's not really about asking why you would risk your life for someone who wouldn't. It's about setting an example. And showing that you don't set your opinions off his. There's plenty of people I wouldn't like to die for but I would if I had to. Well, except for maybe the president but, that's another story. :P
@GamingHell yeah i do believe in the bible 737 prophecies in the bible and 596 have come true to the last letter. maybe you need to do some research and soul searching.
@GamingHell remember one thing the rules and laws you abide by everyday come straight from the holy bible. the reason why you and your family are still breathing its because of the bible and God. remember that shit brain. the rules and laws that govern us today come from the bible do some research son!!!
@wastedwater75 haahahahahahahahahaha , modern day adult believing in santa clause .... can't believe people still believe in this bullshit .. your paragraph seems right out of jesus camp.
@GamingHell its to bad none of your bullshit talk can disprove anything about the bible. you really need to do some research on the bible before you start yappin you bitch boi mouth about it. ;)
@GeorGiiaSTYLE if i die i die idiot my life does not belong to me nor anyone else no one can save me no man can save me only God. this life we are living does not belong to you it belongs to God read your bible. this country and its rules are based on the bible. so before you start talking shit read your bible.
@wastedwater75 your an idiot what does anything that you said have to with anything i said. He saved many lives thats what he got the medle for not just killing people listen to the story u might learn something
and if you answer by saying he demonstrated heroism in facing the enemy in such close quarters, well then his whole unit deserves the silver star, and anyone who has ever been in close quarter combat deserves a silver star.
@TheDRIFTERinc he did NOT lead his team through an evac. you weren't paying attention. he says clearly in the video "i looked over at sgt berrera and said take over, its all yours....he did a great job"
You did a fantastic job with this story. Thank you.
On this Veterans Day, my heart, prayers and enduring gratitude go out to the brave men and women who defend this country for me and my family. God bless all of you.
what did he do that was heroic? don't respond to me with an insult, just answer that simple question. tell me one thing he did that was heroic? the video lays it out pretty clearly. he got shot, then gave an order to call for support. do we know define heroism as getting shot? no insults, just answer the question.
@danjohnson10 Would you bust into a room where you knew a guy was set with up with a SAW? Having a 90% of getting shot just to get his men through? oh yeah no you would not.
The 8 shitheads who disliked this should be beheaded. The final noise they will make in their pitiful existence(not life, they dont have a life) will be the sound of a pig sqealing.
@InterventionII They hide because they are fighting different war. They don't have tanks, helecopters and other high-tech weapons available to US cowered soldiers plus they are out numbered as well, in their own country.
2nd thing, Mujahideen don't blast in Mosques. It's the "Khawarij". Funded by RAW and CIA. 10s of indian agents have been caught inside Pakistan. TTP (Pakistani taliban) are infedels trained on Afghani soil by Indain personnel with US money to operate in Pakistan.
@InterventionII You should read the Jihad doctrine issued to Mujahideen in Afghanistan once shown on Al-Jazeera television. But your problem is that you get info from CNN. I tell you what, US should "FREE" its own economy and thus people from Jews. And tell me something, why US attacked Afghanistan? Which member of 9/11 group belonged from Afghanistan? I'll be waiting for your reply. I hope I don't get a typical idiot US answer from you.
@InterventionII Here's few other question. Why don't we get to see interview from family member of soliders killed in Afghanistan? Why US dead started to get decay while Muslim bodies remain fresh? Why US has only embrased shame in Afghanistan? Mass murderer Bush once said 'we r starting crusade'. Yes, its a crusade and once again, Christains are meeting the same fate as they did against Saladin.
Al Queda were the ones who crashed aircraft into the Twin Towers. Al-Queda were the ones who attacked because around 86% of the US is Christian. Doesnt it even say that Muslims should kill all non-believers? Personally, I dont like the US trying to help a world that obviously hates us, but I will stand by my country until the end of my life. Why dont we get interviews from the families of dead soldiers? Maybe they dont want to have people see it.
Don't make fool of yourself. America doesn't help anybody, They always make it even worse. 9/11 = a few ridiculous thousand dead people ..... Americas counter attack = hundreds of thousands dead people
@InterventionII Give me your eamil address and i'll tell you why Zionists backed US govt attacked Afghanistan in the light of Hadeeth - I hope you know Hadeeth at least since you are in War with muslims and one has to has some knowledge about his enemy's strength.
@bilalhidayat Why do US bodies decay? What does that have to do with our arguement? Why has the US gotten so much shame in Afghanistan? As said in the earlier comment, the Taliban scream over the media ''OH LOOK U.S. KILLED 5 CIVVILIANS LOOK EVERYONE LOOK''.
@InterventionII@InterventionII So its taliban's drama 'oh look US killed 5 civilians'? Where did you learn this? Which of Taliban representative is allowed to come on TV? When did they explain their sides of arguments to the world? Which TV belong to them? Who controls the media? COME ON man, Video "Taliban - Behind the Mask" was removed on 2nd day from youtube, on 3rd day from Metacafe. Even in description it read 'not viewable to US viewers". That's how US hide things.
@InterventionII Listen, Wiki Leaks has clearly identified how more than 500,000 Iraqies were murdered by US soldiers, directly and indirectly through Shia controlled police. Same with Afghanistan. And your comments 'Taliban shouts about civilian casualties' has come from ignorance. Taliban ARE CIVILIANS, fighting for their FREE COUNTRY WITH ISLAMIC LAW. That's why US/NATO haven't got them yet coz local people support them - from heart. Not like US support Karzai - an asshole
@bilalhidayat Yes, I wouldnt be suprised if individual US troops murdered innocent civvilians, because some soldiers may be well....... you know....... trigger happy. Also I looked at WikiLeaks and looked at Iraq War Diaries. Heres what I read: At 5PM EST 22nd October 2010 revealed 391832 reports that document the war and occcupation in Iraq, as told by soldiers in the US Army. Each is a Significant Action in the war. The reports detail 109,032 deaths in Iraq, comprised of 66,081 civilians,
@InterventionII Insurgency is carried out against own govt. You guyz keep calling people who fight you in their own countries "insurgents". Don't you think its funny? Its like Canada attack NewYork and deploy its forces, when some US citizen try to kill some Canadian army, Canadian army come up with statement, "oh, we just killed 5 insurgents". For God's sake be real. We have weapons of Mass destruction-when NATO route was blocked, did anybody dare to invade Pakistan?
@bilalhidayat 23,984 insurgents, 15,196 Iraqi security forces, and 3,771 Coalition troops. Note that it does not specify which faction is majorly responsible for the deaths of these civilians. You obviously manipulated the facts. Of course we havent, as said in my earlier comment, the entire world hates us.
@InterventionII Even for the sake or argument I take your figures, more than 66 thousand civilians and almost 24 thousand "insurgents" killed. For what? Just coz Bush saw a dream that Iraq has Weapons of Mass Destruction? He knew they don't have them n that's why attacked to get oil for US firms on cheap rates from US backed govt. US killed over 100,000 people (ur fig) just to get oil? You talk about Insurgents, why don't u talk about INVADERS? US invaders.
@InterventionII And you didn't answer me Afghanistan? Why did US attack Afghanistan? Taliban had already offered Osama to be tried in 3rd islamic country for 9/11 but US refused, coz they thought war against these idiot islamists will be peace of cake. Iraq for nuclear weapons and Afghanistan for 9/11 when all 9/11 members were from Egypt with planning in Egypt, training and execution of 9/11 on US soil.
am i the only one who sees this for what it is? exploitative feel-good overly dramatic propaganda. i was expecting a self-meriting and inspirational tale of heroism and what i got was an account of how some guy got his jaw and throat bust up. the only thing he did after that was order a call for support.
Thank you so much to everyone in our great nation that has served in the Armed Forces. You are the reason we have the rights and freedoms we do. Again, thank you so much.
Well thank god for you guys fighting a rich mans war in Iraq. Iraq was purely for oil Iraq is a hell hole the Iraqi government/military doesn't even control the streets right now it's a security force that doesn't respond to Iraqi government. 100'000's of Iraqis died for what? Not democracy not freedom they died because the elite have interest over there. Million died if you count the years of bombings and sanctions in the 1990's. Iraq is not justifiable.
I would like to pay my respect to these man and woman in the army serving his/her country....But why IRAQ? where is the weapon of mass destruction?...

@floriofpt In regards to a raging psychotic soldier hunting me down... they can feel free to try. I'll happily blow their brains out though. I should not have to pay for the mental instabilty of another human being, which would be especially ironic seeing as they are fighting for American freedoms, speech being one off them.
Me stating my opinion is freedom. A contradictory psychotic deserves nothing less than a bullet in the head if they go after someone who is demonstrating their freedom.

@floriofpt Riding Saddam was the only thing worth-while that the military has done in the Middle East. That is not why we originally entered the Middle East though. We entered it originally to fight a useless war on terrorism that cannot be won.
With that said, my arguement is in regards to the troops current and continuous presence that is serving absolutely no purpose.

@ChrisD881 This is the fallacy the soldiers believe in though. That they are "protecting" someone. This is the psychological aspect that befalls onto every soldier, and the government exploits it fully.
The soldiers are just as responsible as the government is. They need to evaluate their pride and egos from another perspective, and they will find the war they are fighting is accomplishing nothing other than pain, suffering, debt, and the creation of much more vengeful terrorists.
