Corporal Dunham, thank you!
From The (vast) Right Wing Conspiracy, a truly inspiring tale of heroism from Iraq.
My dad worked with a gentleman named Milton Olive, Sr. His son, Milton Olive, Jr., was on patrol in Vietnam one day when a VC grenade landed right in the midst of the Americans. Without thinking, Pvt. Olive threw his gun into the brush and his body onto the grenade. He was killed instantly- and in the process saved the lives of his buddies.
Pvt. Olive posthumously received the Medal of Honor. Cpl. Dunham should, too. And both men deserve the eternal thanks of us all.
