Thank you for this broadcast. Felt privileged to watch last weeks ceremony and award metal 🥇 distinction. So many hero’s have never been recognized, especially from the Vietnam War. Better late thank never! Thanking all of the service men and women for their service to our nation.,
So, I served in the Army in the early-80s in Germany. Tensions at the time were **very** high between the US and the Warsaw Pact. I served as a tank crewman on the very first generation of M1 Abrams tanks and patrolled the Trace [the Iron Curtain] with an Armored Cavalry Regiment. My regiment's mission if the balloon went up to delay Pact forces for as long as possible in order to give NATO units time to deploy. It was understood that there was a very good likelihood that we would be given a 'die in place' order if that's what it took. And every single grunt, treadhead and gun-bunny [infantryman, tanker, and artilleryman] knew that it was gonna be the Cobras, Loaches, and Warthogs that were gonna save us, if any of us were to be saved at all. We might talk smack about each other [we called chopper crews 'blender-heads'] but we were all very aware that if War Three jumped off, we were all in the same boat. We had a lot of respect for one another.
If he hadn't have picked them up...he'd live with the fact of wondering what happened to those men and how he may have helped. Anyone with any kind of conscience would have trouble living with it. Other people wouldn't care.
It was shameful and disrespectful in my opinion on how Biden wandered out of the room immediately, before the benediction. Biden should have gave this man the full honors he deserves.
One thing that was not forgotten and by other cobra pilots and later Apache pilot that it can be done and even made a harness for someone to ride outside look on UA-cam there is a video clip from a US AirForce B1B that shot video of two British marines riding outside of a Apache helicopter Afghanistan trying to go back to rescue somebody left behind in a fire fight the B1B what the crew was saying was caught on the video they where absolutely stunning what they were watching
Too bad this mans courageousness and honorable heart got kind of lost and mixed up in the vitriol of today's politics. Anyways, alot of men owe this man a debt that can never be repaid it sounded like. Hes an angel to some and glad society recognized this soldier. Unfortunate that this moment was used politically just before Biden had that conference in Vietnam.
You don't need to be an a** and disrespectful to a soldier who went beyond what was expected just to save those 4 soldiers all those years ago! A disabled US Army Veteran
You've got to be kidding me!?!?!? This guy is despicable!!! He was out there trying to get a MOH!!! That was his goal... not the actual rescue!!! The Silver Star wasn't enough for this glory hound!!!
Timothy Wright, listen to the video again. It wasn't Captain Taylor that tried to get the MOH, it was Sgt Dave Hill that lead the effort. If anyone is despicable, it is you and your nasty comments
“what you gonna do, send me to vietnam?” what a legend

Thank you for your service, rest in peace sir .
Thank you for your service Sir. All Veteran's are legends.
They have to make this a movie 🇺🇸
I agree!!! Wow!
I bet in many ways the salute from those four men means more to him than the Medal…
Thank you sir for your service, God bless. A credit to the uniform and humanity alike.
What an AWESOME & AMAZING HERO!!!

yeah I guess he had nothing else to do that day JFC
@@imisstoronto3121 it's not like there are thousands of MOH winners every year. Biden can spare ten more minutes.
True Warrior. Too bad NBC News didn’t show Biden leave CPT Taylor standing by himself.
WOW love all!
The bravest of the brave.
