Roy Benavidez

Roy Benavidez was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor for his actions West of Loc Ninh, South Vietnam in May of 1968. When word that a squad was pinned down by enemy fire Roy Benavidez immediately volunteered to exact their rescue. During the course of the effort he subjected himself to constant enemy fire and suffered numerous injuries, but still led the remaining soldiers to protect and defend their position even after their first rescue helicopter was shot down. I truly do not remember the last time I experienced full body chill like I did watching this. Reached its apex the moment Ronald Reagan began speaking.  Like Ron "I Metzer in St Louis" impertinently instructed me, "Watch it!  That's an Order."
