SSG Ty Carter-MOH
Ammunition was starting to run out, so Ty Carter and other members of his Black Knight troop volunteered to deliver more -- a hundred yards away across the heaviest of gunfire.
Carter didn't think twice about the danger. All he knew was there were three fellow soldiers -- Sgt. Bradley Larson, Spc. Stephan Mace and Sgt. Justin Gallegos -- trapped in a Humvee and they needed more supplies to return fire.
“All you could do was dig in and save your brother,”-Ty Carter
In our celebrity obsessed, Miley Cyrus VMA, Kim Kardashian world that elevates a person for simply being famous or being outrageous in public, I tip my hat to this young man who reminds us of the honor and service that makes this country great.
