And no, I hadn’t heard about the female National Guard solider who won a Silver Star for almost single handedly destroying a terrorist ambush. With all the nonsense about Britney, et al the Fox News Channel covers, you would think they would have made this young woman a star.
And I wonder has David Mamet read Michael Yon’s dispatches? Wouldn’t that be a great team?
Raven 42 (Even sounds like a good movie). Sgt Leigh Ann Hester. Though, it wasn’t exactly “almost single handed”. More like an entire MP unit with men, women, people of all ethnicities. But Hester and Sgt Nein both received a silver star for charging the entrenchments and clearing it out with machine guns and grenades. they saved an entire column with just their little band. Out numbered 3 to 1 I believe.
