I have never thought of how people like this need way more credit than they get.

Staff Sergeant Edward A. Carter, Jr.

Citation: For extraordinary heroism in action on 23 March 1945, near Speyer, Germany. When the tank on which he was riding received heavy bazooka and small arms fire, Sergeant Carter voluntarily attempted to lead a three-man group across an open field. Within a short time, two of his men were killed and the third seriously wounded. Continuing on alone, he was wounded five times and finally forced to take cover. As eight enemy riflemen attempted to capture him, Sergeant Carter killed six of them and captured the remaining two. He then crossed the field using as a shield his two prisoners from which he obtained valuable information concerning the disposition of enemy troops. Staff Sergeant Carter's extraordinary heroism was an inspiration to the officers and men of the Seventh Army Infantry Company Number 1 (Provisional) and exemplify the highest traditions of the Armed Forces.

Poem

It's been 18 years
It's been a long last year
I never thought this day would come
I never thought I would be on my own
I am ready for whatever comes my way
But I am not ready to leave my friends and family
I have known some all my life
Some I will never see again
I remember when I was so young
I didn't care about anything
And never thought I would come this far
And now its here and came way to soon

But I did pay my bills?

I think what they did to that lady was wrong and if i was in her shoes i would have been the same way. They should have handled it alot different especially since she had payed her bills.
