Veterans...Get the hell in here now!

"During the Solomon Islands campaign, a Marine on night sentry duty heard someone approaching in the jungle and fired a few bursts from his machine gun. A voice called out: "Hold up your fire! We are Americans. I am bringing in my platoon." The Marine responded by blasting away with his weapon, wiping out a Japanese patrol. When asked how he knew they were the enemy, he explained that they were "Just too damned grammatical to be Marines." "

The DFC is not passed out like chicklets. Proud of both the recipients, the crew was in the right place at the right time to make heroic rescues.
Bravo Zulu.
