An American Tribute

[Bigaldoc]

I hope you will forgive me paying homage to a fellow Kentuckian and military veteran. This young man received our nation's highest military honor today from our president, the Medal of Honor, for his heroism of a couple of years ago. The mind boggles at what he went through to save his comrades under horrific conditions.

If I ever have to have someone "watching my back," I would hope it would be someone like our Kentucky farm boy, Dakota Meyer!

What's to forgive, Al? We all should be proud of this young man.

There are some in the world who find America's warrior ways distasteful (if not worse). I'm not among them, for I believe that fighting for what you value is a noble thing to do. I think perhaps Al might have been asking forgiveness of those who might be offended, as I do. Having said that, I couldn't agree more, Big Al.

He is an amazing young man - 23 years old. At that age I barely knew how to dress myself.

Kudos to Sgt. Meyer - a true hero and a Great American!

Thank you, Al.

Thank you very much.
