“The Heroes Are the Ones In Camo”

From John Hinderaker at Powerline Blog:

Congratulations to the U.S. Olympic hockey team, which beat the Russians 3-2 in a shootout a few hours ago. The U.S. team’s hero was T.J. Oshie, who scored four shootout goals. Oshie, who plays for the St. Louis Blues, was born in Washington, went to high school in Warroad, Minnesota, and played for North Dakota.

He was mobbed by media after the game. When asked by a reporter how it feels to be an American hero, Oshie replied, “The heroes are the ones in camo.” Good for him.

This kid gets it.
