I had never heard that story. So they scooped up what was left of her body and didn't even put a tourniquet on her blown off legs because they thought she was dead. But they still risked their lives to bring her body back, because WE NEVER LEAVE A SOLDIER BEHIND. Then, when they got her back to the base, they realized she was still alive! And the rest is history.

As she pointed out, if the "never leave a solder behind" rule is ignored, like Trump had suggested, we would have a LOT tougher time recruiting for the armed services!

I'd take her & her titanium legs & wheelchair over every tRump coward & his miserable spawn ever born, in a fire-fight.

Cadet bone-spurs is the biggest fucking coward & traitor that has ever squatted in the "Peoples House".

He is the only reason I'll support the death penalty.

DJT: "What's in it for me?"

Remember when Li'l Don-Don would talk all sorts of shit about bravely charging into a live-fire situation? (Unless it was raining, of course.) We knew he was a bragging coward then, naturally. But now even his most devout cultist knows, even if they will die before they admit it.
