I also think that Mike is an obvious candidate for a Pulitzer. The guy is writing some amazing stories, and his work routinely brings tears to my eyes.

I imagined that the guy would be overwhelmed with emails, and so I resisted writing to him....but one day....I just had to reach out and tell him that I thought that he was doing some incredible work. He wrote back to me, and was very gracious.

He is blazing a new trail in so many ways.

And there is no doubt that he is telling the story of that unit...in ways that are absolutely unique.

I cannot say enough about him.
