RIP TO THESE HEROES
Left to right: Michael P. Murphy, Marcus Luttrell, James Suh, Daniel R. Healy, and Matthew Axelson. Four of these men never came home from Afghanistan. Operation Red Wings, June 2005. Murphy, Axelson, Dietz, and Luttrell were the four-man ground element that got hit in the mountains. Murphy walked into open ground to make a radio call he knew would likely cost him his life just to save his teammates.
Suh and Healy were among the 16 additional warriors lost when their rescue helicopter was shot down trying to reach them. Luttrell was the only one who made it out. Look at this photo. Just young men, brothers, standing together before everything. This is what sacrifice actually looks like.
