Thanks Frank. That's awesome. Grace under pressure, cool heads and sheer guts. As our great General Patton said (to loosely paraphrase):
"There are two kinds of soldiers. The ones that run TOWARD the sounds of the guns and those who run AWAY from the sound of guns. When the shooting starts, well see who is who."

Looks like the other two cadets didn't make it either. My little heroes! I will remember their names, tell anyone who will listen about them and make sure my future grandkids (God willing)
Will know about them. Mad Dog
