French Legion of Honor

Just happened to wake up at 3:30 am to hear the President of France making a speech at a ceremony to honor our three Americans and an Englishman for their courage in overcoming a terrorist armed with guns and a box cutter on a train with over 500 passengers.

His praise was sincere and heartgiven in gratitude to these humble young men who saved untold lives when they subdued an armed young terrorist, while they were unarmed...

The "boys" did us proud by their actions and with the advice, "if you see something wrong, do something."

Just happened to put the tv on as a light at the right time.
