@EpicMRPancake

5 жыл бұрын

@Victor Torres No one asked Monsoor to jump on a grenade, but he did it anyway, and saved his team mates from death and grievous injury. Jesus was supposedly sent by a version of himself that knew what would happen, to suffer horribly and die not to actually save anyone, but absolve literally everyone of things they had and hadn't even done yet. In other words, to create a theological loophole (if you believe in Jesus, your sins are washed clean). Sacrifice is to give up something valuable to yourself, to promote something valuable for other people. It's not a sacrifice if you were coerced into doing it, and it definitely isn't if it isn't done to actually save anyone from anything real.

@gruntusmc8922

5 жыл бұрын

@@emiliovanilla6833; Sir, to jump into a grenade is not taught but it's instinct that takes over over logic and reason. Why?, because every member of your Team, Squad, Platoon, Company, Battalion, Regiment, Brigade, Division and even member of other branches are like a family, (an extremely close family),and when the ammunition start flying on your way hissing by you, Our Servicemembers only have each other, and they'll do whatever is needed when the time comes to defend his/her family. Every Officer, NCO learned throughout their first years of SERVICE that their main job is; To PROTECT the Men under your Command and to Complete the Mission, in the extreme case that you couldn't do both, your job is to complete the Mission. It is said that the definition of Courage is "to do the right thing knowing that it can cause extreme bodily harm or cost you your life". Believe me, every men who's lead men into combat knows and feels that they couldn't live with themselves if they loose men and they could've done something to prevent that, and the other thing is, "what am I going to tell his family when I go back?". So if a grenade comes in your perimeter there's NO time to warn your brothers,(a grenade fuse is 3-5 seconds since you release it from the hand), and if no one does something about it a lot more men will loose their life, some others stay back knowing that they'll pay the ultimate price so the rest of their Team or unit can go back to his/her family This are some of the things that most of the civilians take for granted and a high % don't care to the point that they despise our Servicemembers to the point of telling nasty things, insulting, makind demeaning coments because they don't know any better and don't CARE. It is said that "no one loves the sheepdog untill the wolf is on site to have a good meal". I hope that I've answered your question. SEMPER FI!.

Perhaps that might be something that would make you feel more accomplished.

I'll disagree slightly. What Michael Monsoor did he did in a matter of seconds. There was something within him that reacted by throwing himself between the threat and his buddies, an almost parental reaction of protection. Some people are born with that heightened protective reaction, in some it is something that their life experiences kick-start. There is no way to tell who will have the reaction. It is not very many, but it will be a good deal higher than .000000001%. People who become members of elite military and/or law enforcement and first response teams are probably statistically more likely to act like Michael Monsoor. Of course none of this in any way decreases his heroic act in any way whatsoever. Awarding him a Medal Of Honor and naming a ship after him? I'll bet he is getting a kick out of this in Valhalla, wondering over a tall viking ale what all of the fuss is about. He did what he was instinctively driven to do, when he had to do it, to save the lives of his comrades.

You would be surprised at how many Medals of Honor have been awarded for jumping on a grenade to save the rest of your teams lives!!! That takes some serious stones to do!!!! There is a Marine in South Carolina who is pretty disfigured in the face now. His name is Kyle Carpenter. He did the exact same thing and dove on a grenade in Iraq but somehow survived despite being horrible wounded and disfigured for life. He also was awarded The Medal of Honor. To give you an idea of how selfless and brave of an act you have to do to be awarded that medal... 80 percent of all The Medal of Honors awarded are posthomously awarded. That means it was so incredible what that person did that 8 out of 10 times they ended up dying in the act

I always wished them well with the Teams, and gave them a "Roger that!" often in return to their own, since that was something Monsoor was known for and they'd slyly want to know how much I might know about their base. It's not advertised. These young men...always first to volunteer and go forward. Plus these young people? They would always offer an old Army vet a ride. Roger that!

His spirit will live through every sailor, every seal, every Marine. Rest in peace frogman

That truly was amazing. A Canadian here, north of the border and I just want to say thank you very much to whom that made the video. In a short time it sure told me what a amazing man, brother and hero Michael was. Truly selfless. 👍👍

This brought tears to my eyes and touched my heart deeply. Praise God for patriots like him, I’ll always look up and admire such men who are ready to lay their lives for the men/women next to them anytime. I pray more men becomes more like Mikey, but mostly become godly and more Christ like. ❤️

I see there are atleast 6 people in the world who need their thumbs down broken.

Agreed. No matter how many thumbs down, they are all jerks and pretty much assholes.

That’s powerful!!! God bless everyone in the military.....and thank you.

I will never have the courage , bravery, honor or discipline this man had, but I will try my best to raise my sons to be like him. They will know his name and his story..

Respect from Ireland 🇮🇪 ✊

The speech at the end gave me chills, hooyah, this makes me proud to be in the USN

My word, a HERO in every sense! RIP Mr Monsoor and may the good Lord continue to watch over your family!

What a legacy we should all aspire to this kind of memory it’s a memory that Will live on even in eternity

Every time this enters my recommendations I can't help but watch. Thank you for your service & your sacrifice sir!

I remember all the stories I read in the book Special Operations by USMC (ret.) Col. Oliver North. Micheal Monsoor’s story was indeed great. Hell they were all great and I enjoyed reading them over and over and over again. “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” Luke 15:13. R.I.P. and Godspeed

God bless the USA and our troops. All of them. 🇺🇸

Mike monsoor and john chapman really deserved the medal of honor that they received for the heroic acts they did to save their comrades.

"I now have a family, a wife and three kids.and I owe that all to Mikey"......DAMN

He was a great friend to my father and were proud of his bravery

R.I.P. Respect from Sweden!

These are American Heroes if you look up to anyone it should be them

He sacrificed his life paving the way for future generations to wear the uniform. I'm proud to have served, I'm in a homeless shelter for vets, but I'm proud to have worn my uniform with Honor, Courage, and Commitment! 2009-2013 USN Thank you For your service! And all who have served RIP brother

Bravery can not be taught. It is something thst is born wirhin us. Rock on Mikey... gone, but not forgotten.

Thank you for your service, and rest in peace my fellow California Michael Monsoor. God bless his family and friends that served with him. The real hero in the world. And as for the world, make sure you thank your Heroes that lived or died. The ones that served your country.

Thanks and condolences to this young man’s family. My husband was a Marine Vietnam era vet, 69-72 and he would have appreciated this video about this brave young man.

Thank you for your service and sacrifice Mikey God bless you son REST IN PEACE brother

This story is so sad... Respect to him and i hope his family will go on after that. I had to think about the story my father once told me: Before his last mission before going home, he broke his arm and could stay in camp... lucky for him because the vehicle he would sit in was hit by a RPG and 6 out of 8 where killed. I think every soldier has the right to get an honor-medal for his duty...no matter wich country he lives in!

I mean... Not every "soldier" is on the frontlines, most aren't. I think it does a disservice to men like Michael Monsoor to call every person in the military a "hero," because they certainly are not all heroes; most of them aren't. Don't get me wrong, I respect all military personnel but I think "hero" status should be reserved for people like Michael who actually prove themselves by showing incomprehensible amounts of bravery, intelligence and selflessness. Edit: I'm not saying a soldier has to die to be revered as a hero, because there are many real life versions of superheroes in all branches of the military who survive their encounters with near-death, but as I said above I don't think "hero" should be tossed around so casually.

A soldier does received a medal for their duty. Example a young soldier just finish his training and gets deployed to afghanistan, he will receive 1 or 2 or a few medals like global war on terror campaign medal and national defense medal and more. If he or she ever gets killed or wounded in combat he/she will receive the purple heart. Not easy to be called Hero but Michael Monsoor definitely is a Hero.

It is sad, but also wonderful. That moment is now his for all eternity. Men like him are remembered forever, and they deserve every ounce of that notoriety.

May God bless all of the members of our armed forces. To each and every one of you, thank you for your service and all you have sacrificed for us.

Wow that’s an honor to know that he and I are born on the same Year, Month and Day 💪🏽 mad Respect ✊🏽 goes out 💯💯💯✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽

Wow! What courage he had. And what love he had for his team 😢😢😢😢. Bless him and his unselfish service.

Thank you for your service. Truly inspiring, from Australia

I can’t fathom that kind of selfless bravery. Most people use “jumping on a grenade” as a metaphor. This guy actually did the unthinkable in order to save his brothers. Unbelievable. I don’t know whether there’s an afterlife, but I can’t help but hope there’s some sort of reward waiting on the other side of a sacrifice of that magnitude.

R.I.P Hero, Michael Monsoor

I sometimes find myself doubting my beloved country, but when i hear about heros like Michael Monsoor, i know the American fighting spirit is as strong as it was since Bunker Hill, Gettysburg, and Normandy. God Bless every man and woman in a US uniform. And God bless my beloved country🇺🇸

God bless you Michael, God bless his family and thank you for your sacrifice.

God bless our men and woman who proudly serve this Great Nation of ours. And let's never forget those who gave the ultimate sacrificed and their loved ones.

This man jumped on a grenade to save his brothers in arms. Much respect to you sir and may you rest in peace. From a Canadian. I would have been honored to serve with you.

The half smile always tells the biggest story. Some of the biggest jokesters I've met, usually have the biggest hearts.

God speed brave hero, we will never forget your act of valor.

The greatest thing a man can do is lay his life down to save his friends. That's when you act as a God in the true sense like the Nazrene FatherSon.

His mothers voice is so proud and cracked by christening that ship in his honour

Inspiring, God bless Michaels family

Wow he a true hero 😞 .. thank you 🙏 for your service 🇺🇸
