Out-Of-Touch Media Living in Their DC Bubble - Incapable of Telling The Mike Monsoor Story

Editors Note: Millions of folks read, listen and watch every morning, noon and night to the DC  newspaper TV talking heads, Yet, we only read real life stories on the internet about the likes of Mike Monsoor - striking a nerve that means something to real people.. No wonder that the "media" is viewed by the overwhelming majoriity of readers, listners and viewers as out-of-touch with what is important to ordinary hard working Americans. No wonder that their readership and viewership - accross the board, is declining

Just imagine how great it would be if everyday - in every newspaper, on every TV news show- a real life Mike Monsoor story were to be told. The news media's preoccupation with reporting news that is only important to them, living inside their bubble, is indeed sad.  

Michael Monsoor - Born April 5, 1981; Died September 29, 2006

Mike Monsoor, was Awarded "The Congressional Medal Of Honor" For Giving His Life In Iraq , As He Jumped On, And Covered With His Body, A Live Hand Grenade, 
Saving The Lives Of A Large Group Of Navy Seals That Was Passing By! 

 
During Mike Monsoor's Funeral,  At Ft. Rosecrans National Cemetery , In San Diego , California The Six Pallbearers Removed The Rosewood Casket From The Hearse, And Lined Up On Each Side Of Mike Monsoor's Casket, Were His Family Members, Friends, Fellow Sailors, And Well-wishers. 

 
The Column Of People Continued From The Hearse, All The Way To The Grave Site. What The Group Didn't Know At The Time Was,  Every Navy Seal (45 To Be Exact) That Mike Monsoor Saved That Day Was Scattered Through-Out The Column! 

As The Pallbearers Carried The Rosewood Casket  Down The Column Of People To The Grave Side.  The Column Would Collapse. Which Formed A Group Of People That Followed Behind. 

Every Time The Rosewood Casket Passed A Navy Seal, 
He Would Remove His Gold Trident Pin From His Uniform,  And Slap It Down Hard, Causing The Gold Trident Pin To Embed Itself  Into The Top Of The Wooden Casket! Then The Navy Seal Would Step Back From The Column, And Salute! 

 
Now For Those, Who Don't Know What A Trident Pin Is, 
Here Is The Definition! After One Completes The Basic Navy Seals Program Which Lasts For Three Weeks,  And Is Followed By Seal Qualification Training,  Which Is 15 More Weeks Of Training,  Necessary To Continue Improving Basic Skills And To Learn New Tactics And Techniques, Required For An Assignment To A Navy Seal Platoon. After successful completion, Trainees Are Given Their Naval Enlisted Code, And Are Awarded The Navy Seal Trident Pin. With This Gold Pin They Are Now Officially Navy Seals! 

It Was Said, That You Could Hear Each Of The 45 Slaps From Across The Cemetery! By The Time The Rosewood Casket Reached The Grave Site,  It Looked As Though It Had A Gold Inlay From The 45 Trident Pins That Lined The Top!


This Was A Fitting End To An Eternal Send-Off For A Warrior Hero!
