Too many run from their fate, but a hero runs to meet it.

Surely, God has blessed America with very special brands of Heroes,
In War and in peace.
Men who count the cost, and then pay the price anyway.

The thinker said it all for this thread

I see courage and conviction in that face.

He was more than a dead man walking.

He was a hero charging into hell for others.

Thank you father for the Heroes here at FreeRepublic, who give their
Time (the most valuable cost you ain't getting no more).
Talent (a gift received from God)
Treasure (easily replaced you can always get more).

As we stand a prayerful watch on the American home front.
In regards to the mosque to the moongod,
not our will but thy will be done.
This is the devils world and all you ask of us is to take a stand on your side of the line. amen

I know in my heart Mr Box is so proud of his son.
I think God gave him a glimpse of his son,for a reason.
I know that the Heavenly Father hold all the people in his hands from 9/11.

Should have been Ron Paul’s last picture.

You're an incredible jerk.

He was an amazing man with a great story.

... amen, a hero with at least three great stories. If you haven’t read both Heart of a Soldier and We Were Soldiers Once and Young as Rick’s story is told in both...

ymmv

Rick Rescorla was a survivor of the first battle involving the US Army Air Cavalry, in Vietnam. This was the battle of LZ X-Ray, as depicted in the book and movie, We Were Soldiers (Once, and Young)

At least I know one item I’ll be reviewing in my first parent/teacher conference.

Let ‘em have it hard. I hope you can get your son out of government schools ASAP.

I saw that show about the Morgan Stanley guy a few years ago. It was quite well done and, yes, it will make you cry.

Rick Rescorla is another great man, one I think of every year at this time.

May God comfort Jud Box..I am so grateful for heroes like Gary Box..
The loss and horror of that day cannot be forgotten..The heroic deeds by our fire and police departments and individual citizens cannot be forgotten.
Remember the military men and women who took up the fight for our country. May God comfort all who mourn.
