Please Visit and read this article before commenting. Especially interesting when Sgt. tackles armed bad guy when his rifle runs dry. Talk about balls.

Quote from Michael Yon Blog, journalist in Iraq. Wonderful read, and the quote comes near the end.
"Prosser shot the man at least four times with his M4 rifle. But the American M4 rifles are weak--after Prosser landed three nearly point blank shots in the man's abdomen, splattering a testicle with a fourth, the man just staggered back, regrouped and tried to shoot Prosser."
IMO, we need far more journalists like this guy. Tales of heroism like this get no publicity and deeds such as these guys perform every day speak of heroism that is beyond belief. Our nation has never had better in the field.
