One brave guy
 

As part of the 11th Machine Gun Squad, Co. H, 2nd Battalion, 1st Regiment, 1st Marine Division, Al Schmid became part of the largest Marine force ever engaged in landing operations. They assaulted Guadalcanal in the first American offensive against the Japanese. After one buddy was killed and another injured, Schmid was left loading and firing a machine gun for more than four hours. Then came the Japanese grenade that would take Schmid's sight -- but not his courage.

Shouting at an injured friend to "tell me which way they coming from and I'll get them," he resumed firing, sightless. After the field cleared on Aug. 21, Marines on the scene credited Schmid with 200 kills. He received the Navy Cross while recovering from numerous operations on his face and eyes.

Yea I saw a show about him...that guys got balls of Titanium

200 kills? Thats a lot, the guy must be one brave guy maybe he should have gotten the medal of honor

That's what I was thinking...

Damn, that does take balls. I wonder what the hell was going through his mind? I wonder if his pain "went away". Some stories i heard before tell about how your body makes its own painkillers when your body is stimulated to an extreme.

I dont think you get the medal of honor in the marines and navy. I believe the Navy cross is just as high honor wise. I could be wrong though.

And Coleman, its called ADRENALINE (keeps me in teh game!!) biggrin:

Semper Fi!

yea, any branch can get the Medal Of Honor.

There's a different design for each branch though, I think the army has one, the air force, and the navy and marines share one. I saw it on mail call.

they should make a movie about that guy
