A most worthy member...twice he went into fire to make rescues. Going into fire is such a frightening thing, and to do it twice....yes, First Sgt Briles is most worthy!!

"Going into fire is such a frightening thing"

A frightening thing indeed - but a thing our troops do without hesitation. God Bless our men and women of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard! They are exemplars of courage and gallantry to the Nation - even those who don't get any medals. Heroes all!



Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
