SSgt Sal Giunta awarded the Medal of Honor

This video goes back to November 2010, but the sentiments that it contains are timeless and reflect on the hubris of our elected leaders who imagine that they are more important than those who sacrifice to make us free. Family and fellowship in combat are timeless values. Our leaders reflect not so much our values but our vices, pride, hubris, opportunism, greed and envy. We need a return to personal sacrifice and humility in the public service. Any of these "average soldiers" are worth more than the whole kit and caboodle of our elected sycophants.
