    As a Patriot Guard Rider from the San Antonio Texas region! Originally from Pearsall TX., I had the honor on meeting Medal of Honor United States Marine William Kyle Carpenter at the San Antonio International Airport! I was also able to meet and greet Military Medal of Honor recipients! I never thought I would ever come across these highly decorated Military personnel! It only comes once in awhile that someone like me, from a small Texas town would ever meet Medal of Honor recipients! I will never forget this day! As a token of my appreciation and honor I gave each one a Thank you for your service Challenge Coin! Thank you United States Military! A job well done! May God bless everyone of you and your family! God bless America!

    Kyle is a Marine's Marine, the humblest Medal of Honor recipient I've ever seen, this man doesn't seek the spotlight, but he will forever be a true American hero! Semper Fi sir!

    This guy is humble, genuine, spirited, empowered, motivated and tough...not trying to be decisive but Dakota seems like a proud boastful, arrogant, fool. Kyle is a Marine I'd like to meet uses his platform to inspire and uplift. SF!

    On November 21, 2010, U.S. Marine Lance Corporal Kyle Carpenter was posted atop a building in violent Helmand Province, Afghanistan, when an enemy grenade skittered toward Kyle and fellow Marine Nick Eufrazio. Without hesitation, Kyle chose a path of selfless heroism that few can imagine. He jumped on the grenade, saving Nick but sacrificing his own body. . . Thank you for writing your memoir and also narrating it. I've listened to it twice so far. You are a beautiful soul.

    This is where the understanding of outsiders comes to an end. The bond between brothers in arms goes beyond mere friendship. When you with a full and happy heart will lay yourself before death to protect your friends, your brothers you may know what it’s like to be Kyle Carpenter. It’s not for medals we should strive but the hearts of the men who bear them.

    Semper Fi, brother. My fall from three floors up. Blind now in my left eye, my skull fractured in many places, a punctured liver, two weeks in a coma and six months of retrograde amnesia. I woke up in a hospital not knowing where i was or how I got there. I won't ever have memory of what happened that day. The good side of that is that I also don't remember every heartfelt hospital visit I received from my friends and family. I am alive...I am grateful.

    Three grenades were thrown to start the attack I don't remember those three which all were thrown within. The compound and inside the walls. The fourth was thrown and landed in very close proximity to me and nick on the roof. I don't remember seeing the grenade thinking about it all I remember is physically how I felt after later after many years and over 10 or 50 page very through and extensive investigation done by the Marine corps department of defense it was determined and even eyewitness testimonies and post blast analysis and forensics done by explosive hornets disposal team on my gear in the area of blast was determined the covered by grenade for my fellow Marine. But physically, how I felt after is the first thing was just pure confusion and disorientation I couldn't see anything. If I was looking at a TV with no connection just white and grey static my ears are ringing extremely loud and that was interrupted by what I thought was this will allude to Marine's humor. But my buddies pouring warm water all of me I was thinking really guys like in this banded up state out here and you're missing me right now. But that final kind of question mark piece allowed for the other ones to fall in place to give me the surreal and unfortunate realization that what I was feeling was not warm water that it was blood and I was profusely bleeding out and I knew from physically how I felt in addition to the medical training we received before we deploy And unfortunately, the casualties that I'd seen up until that point on deployment I knew that my time was limited. So I thought about my family specifically my mother who would be and beyond devastated that I didn't survive to make it home, I said that quick prayer forgiveness and anything I had done wrong and that I was followed by a tiredness that completely consume and I feel impossible to recount , but I became extremely exhausted and that I thought that I was last moments and I faded from consciousness in the world on that hot dusty rooftop in Afghanistan and I woke up roughly five weeks later and my first site was solely opening the only I had left to Christmas stocking at my mom had hung on my hospital room wall decorating my room for Christmas with snow outside on my window.
