Kudos to them and the other heroes honored that day. Kudos to the Observer for carrying the story and to you for letting us know about it.

The TV news can give the honored dead 15 seconds. They can give our heroes some airtime, too. But at least we have blogs like this to spread the word.

The story did get out to some local papers (SC-VA-NC) from an AP story that reduced the original by about 70%, and some area TV station sites.

Your point that this story didn't get the play it deserved stands.

That should have made the mainstream news, I completely agree. These heroes actions deserve it.

Just once, I'd like to see something like this on CNN, MSNBC, or FOX.

Ditto what Carole said, and there is a resource for honors bestowed over at CentCom…I'm gonna start posting updates when they update their site…thanks for giving me the final shove to start doing this Patriot.

God bless Holmes, Logsdon, and Keefe. True American heroes.
