Just Jack Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 This is the guy that went up against his home owners association a couple years ago because they wouldn't let him fly the American flag in front of his home, just a minor incident when you check out the second link http://www.marketwatch.com/story/medal-of-honor-recipient-van-t-barfoot-passes-away-at-92-2012-03-02 http://www.homeofheroes.com/moh/citations_living/ii_a_barfoot.html

drinkTHEkoolaid Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 I just read his citation and that's astonishing he survived. RIP Not to nitpick but did they mean to describe the German counter attack consisted of Mark IV tanks ?
Pilsner Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 Colonel Barfoot, you have exemplified heroism to this nation. Anyone worth their salt would wish to have your courage. Anyone appreciative of your actions will mourn your passing. Thank you brave, dear serviceman.
Pilsner Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 It's unfortunate there were people who had an issue with him flying the US flag. !@#$ em. Fly it for the ideals and not for the corruption that hides behind the flag. May this man RIP knowing he did what he could.
