In September 2006, Michael laid down his life for his brothers in arms. Today, we remember the life of this faithful Navy SEAL. And on behalf of a grateful nation, we will present Michael Monsoor’s family with the Medal of Honor that he earned.

From everything I have heard – he was quite a man.

To loose a son has to be tragic beyond belief but to know that he lost his life in an act of selfless sacrifice to save others has to engender pride beyond belief. What a conflict of emotions.

Count it the greatest sin to prefer life to honor, and for the sake of living to lose what makes it worth living.
