Gallantry at its finest. We should all hold in our hearts what these men tried to accomplish,knowing of almost certain death,they gave there self, the full measure of heart and humanity to be a major part of protecting this union! there love of duty,and of each other,should reflect on all of us as americans,and start today this instant to bury all our petty differences and walk,talk treat every American with the dignity and respect they deserve!…… Tj United States Navy Retired.

What a story. The distance in time and even knowing what was to come has made it no less suspenseful and inspiring.
