@JonathanXLindqviust You're right. I thought he looked like he was about to cry. He got the highest medal, but just the same, he looks like he needs a psychiatrist to counsel him. I am proud of him, but I also feel pity for him.

Fuck those operations guys, I hope they feel guilt the rest of their lives.

I'm not American, I'm against the War, but still proud of a guy who simply put his life on the line to try to save others.

He say he failed and that he's not a hero, yet he accepts the medal of honor??

You Americans my vote for Ron Paul? Why you wage the wars that merely work for big corporations? Why??????

Those political military leaders need to be shot as an example.

So tragic that the guy get's his countries most prestigious award... and he still doesn't have any psychiatrist to treat the so very obvious emotional scars he got. The guy is about to cry more than once and you can see he hates himself for failing when he should be glad to be alive.

@LegoFilmKid sorry my friend i served in another army not the us and im speaking in general. thats one of their ways to lure people and convince them to walk on this path
every one in the usa is suffering economically because of it and ur real protecter is police, FBI.
