1
00:00:00,847 --> 00:00:03,430
(somber music)

2
00:00:13,650 --> 00:00:17,160
- We had three people that
were on the action with me,

3
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,580
all Americans, but they
were at different locations

4
00:00:20,580 --> 00:00:22,752
when the battle started.

5
00:00:22,752 --> 00:00:25,335
(somber music)

6
00:00:48,480 --> 00:00:53,480
the first person that I went
after was a person named Brown.

7
00:00:54,150 --> 00:00:57,840
Brown had been shot near
the temple of his head.

8
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:02,430
It took me about an hour
and a half to get to him.

9
00:01:02,430 --> 00:01:06,450
I found a way to grab
him under his armpits

10
00:01:06,450 --> 00:01:10,950
and drag him about 150 yards to a place

11
00:01:10,950 --> 00:01:14,910
where he could be evacuated
with in a helicopter.

12
00:01:14,910 --> 00:01:18,570
And I remember very
distinctly when I got there,

13
00:01:18,570 --> 00:01:22,590
he said, "Sir, am I about to die?"

14
00:01:22,590 --> 00:01:25,070
And I said, "Not before me."

15
00:01:25,070 --> 00:01:27,653
(somber music)

16
00:01:38,725 --> 00:01:41,225
(tense music)

17
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,720
You're about to cross the street.

18
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,294
A little kid runs out in front of you.

19
00:01:51,294 --> 00:01:52,440
You see a car coming.

20
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,950
You forget about the car, you
think about the little kid.

21
00:01:55,950 --> 00:01:58,050
You grab him, you pick him up,

22
00:01:58,050 --> 00:02:00,570
and you run across the rest of the street.

23
00:02:00,570 --> 00:02:03,180
I say when you do something
like that, you don't know

24
00:02:03,180 --> 00:02:05,280
what you're doing, but you do it.

25
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,013
And in the end, it's exactly
what you wanted to do.

26
00:02:08,850 --> 00:02:11,700
One of the things that I
thought was really important

27
00:02:11,700 --> 00:02:15,090
in being able to be in charge of truth

28
00:02:15,090 --> 00:02:17,310
is to be able to share with them.

29
00:02:17,310 --> 00:02:20,280
And one of the things
we always talked about,

30
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,443
even in training, was courage.

31
00:02:23,340 --> 00:02:26,010
It was a thing that came over you

32
00:02:26,010 --> 00:02:28,470
at a moment you least expected it,

33
00:02:28,470 --> 00:02:30,990
and something you did that showed others

34
00:02:30,990 --> 00:02:32,520
that you were still with 'em.

35
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,370
It was something that made you feel good.

36
00:02:35,370 --> 00:02:37,260
You didn't know why, at the same time,

37
00:02:37,260 --> 00:02:39,030
you were just scared to death.

38
00:02:39,030 --> 00:02:42,810
That's when a person does
something, not for his betterment,

39
00:02:42,810 --> 00:02:46,440
but for the betterment of the
action he's about to take.

40
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,380
It makes everyone on the
other side feel better,

41
00:02:49,380 --> 00:02:52,650
know better, and glad that
they are where they are.

42
00:02:52,650 --> 00:02:54,483
And that's usually being in America.

43
00:02:56,479 --> 00:02:59,146
(hopeful music)
