Killing people is manly! Grrrrrrr! Look how big my penis is!
Rrrrrrrrooooowwwwrrrr!

**I get your point.  But at the same time, if you go to the medal of honor site
and read the accounts, this one, like many others, is really not in the same
class.  I am absolutely not questioning his medal or if he deserved it.  Were I
military still I would salute him with honor (literally, MOH recipients wearing
their medals are rendered salutes just as officers are).  But I have read
accounts that were much more dramatic.

**I got to meet several medal of honor recipients.  A sobering experience,
particularly when I read about them later.  And all the ones I met were much
like this guy, very humble.
