A Marine Force Recon buddy sent this to me today; this is what the American warrior class does for it's own - we always bring them back. It might take fifty, or a hundred and fifty years, but in the end . . . we always bring them back.
This is Honor.
The Marine Raiders of World War II were the forerunners of Force Reconnaissance.
Also today, we honor Tim Hetherington, British war correspondent and photographer - killed in action, 20 April 2011 in the besieged Libyan city of Misurata.
Journalists go forward to the battle fronts as absolute volunteers - there is no requirement they go. This is guts, and they serve an important role as scribes of history. But in the end, theys rolls the dices and theys takes theys chances. Hetherington was worthy, however - he was director and producer of the film “Restrepo”
I saw that documentary; it was so real for me, it sent shivers up my spine.

In 2007 and 2008, Hetherington spent 14 months with a platoon of
paratroopers from the famed 173d Airborne Brigade in the Korangal Valley, Afghanistan.
