I don't often link to CBSNews -- but this piece on the ceremony awarding the Navy Cross to two Marines who chose to sacrifice their lives that others might live reduced me to tears when I came across it last night.

I have a number of former student in the Marines (as well as other branches of the military) right now, and I hope that they are capable of living up to the standard of courage and selflessness set by Lance Cpl. Jordan Haerter and Cpl. Jonathan Yale.
