Bruce McQuain from Blackfive joined us once again for Someone You Should Know, our weekly tribute to the troops. Bruce spent 28 years in the U.S. Army and he is a veteran of the Vietnam war. He brings a perspective and understanding to these stories that we could never match.
This week Bruce told us about Marine SGT Timothy Connors of Braintree Massachusetts,
There is nothing more intense or difficult than house to house fighting. And in our military it is up to the junior officers and NCOs to lead their troops in such fighting. When your read SGT Connors citation it is obvious that he is indeed one of those leaders who make our military the best the world has ever seen. And the grenade incident points to the sort of valor that is common and most of the times goes unrecognized.
The Someone You Should Know radio collaboration began as an extension of Matt Burden’s series at Blackfive. Bruce does an incredible job with the series every week. The Pundit Review Radio Podcast RSS feed can be found here.
