WHY WASN'T THIS ON THE FRONT PAGE NEWS?

Navy Petty Officer

Mike Monsoor


PO2 (EOD2) (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) Mike Monsoor, a Navy EOD Technician, was
awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor posthumously for jumping on a grenade in Iraq,
giving his life to save his fellow Seals.

(Notice: Mike was not a Navy SEAL, he was EOD. He gave his life to save a group of Navy SEALS.)

During Mike Monsoor's funeral in San Diego , as his coffin was being moved from the hearse
to the grave site at Ft. Rosecrans National Cemetery , SEAL's were lined up on both sides
of the pallbearers route forming a column of two's, with the coffin moving up the center.

As Mike's coffin passed, each SEAL, having removed his gold Trident from his uniform,
slapped it down embedding the Trident in the wooden coffin.




The slaps were audible from across the cemetery; by the time the coffin arrived grave side,
it looked as though it had a gold inlay from all the Tridents pinned to it.

This was a fitting send-off for a warrior hero..

This should be front-page news instead of the crap we see every day...
Since the media won't make this news, I choose to make it news.

I am very proud of our military. If you are proud too, please speak up.
