Extended Interview: Medal Of Honor Recipient Master Sgt. Earl Plumlee
Army Master Sgt. Earl Plumlee was one of three recent recipients of the Medal of Honor, the highest military award for valor. Plumlee was recognized for his efforts to repel a suicide attack in Afghanistan in August of 2013. He takes NBC News' Peter Alexander through the events of that day, and describes how he rushed into danger to help. He was recognized alongside Sgt. 1st Class Christopher Celiz and Sgt. 1st Class Alwyn Cashe, who were honored posthumously. "Our stories are going to be bound together forever, and I hope I can represent them well," Plumlee says.

Forget this cheerful interview from this smiling flight attendant. Read the official MOH citation. Dude rampaged through the enemy attack, took multiple direct suicide vest blasts, triggered another suicide vest with precision sniper fire, used his pistol in a close-quarters 360-degree gunfight. Multiple contacts inside 7 meters.

Thank You for you Heroism and Service Medal Of Honor Recipient Master Sgt. Earl Plumlee.
Thank you for your service, Sir. From a brother soldier.
Me and my Company were there at the breach when the suicide bombers were going off and they were getting through. This is disappointing to watch.
If this man is related to Basil Plumlee, I’m not surprised at his valor.

"The caliver of people I showed up with. Even if they got past me, they weren't getting past that corner." Also liked his other comment about file clerk manning the wall, and his appreciation of everyone else on the base handling their fights while his group found a fight of their own.
Hero
I know Earl, he’s is the nicest man, so humbled, you would never know he is a real Rambo! God bless him and his daughter
The guy doing the interview is very childish and unprofessional... he has the interviewing skills of a college frat boy.

Yep, kept asking how did you not get shot to this MoH recipient, unprofessional to say the least. God bless our unsung warriors.
This interviewers attitude is so cheerful and odd. If you read the real reports. This dude went full Rambo. This interviewers lack of seriousness makes it seem way to unrealistic.
once a marine always a marine even when you go Army
00:47 “they didn’t spent all that money training us for us to watch” 💪🏽
"Will you be a representative of those other men as well?" What kind of question is that?
Savage 🔥
Never run for cover, you run to the fight and bring the hate and fire
Sometimes this questions in these interviews seem just a little but insensitive or lack a humbleness to them.
The interviewer is a little off-tone. He sounds like he's interviewing a pop star
I remember this guy from Brooklyn 99. He kept trying to date Amy.
Great job Earl! When we went drove to Ghazni from Paktika it looked like King Kong had kicked a hole through that perimeter wall. DOL 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

I would have loved to hear the rest of the interview of MSgt Plumlee but I just couldn't listen to another inane question from Lester Holt. Holt must be the singularly worst interviewer I've heard in decades.
Interviewer comes off like a car salesman trying to be a war corespondent
his c.i.b. is not straight and that bothers me.
