My brush stroke...

The Sal Giunta Story from SebastianJunger/TimHetherington on Vimeo.

Recently, the Army announced that SSG Sal Giunta, the only living Medal of Honor Winner from the wars of the 21st Century has chosen to leave the service at the end of his tour. The service will miss him. His comments at the end of the piece are so honest and so humble and so angry that I am stunned that this kid is able to show such moral courage, intellectual clarity and situational awareness. This is what we have wasted time and again in Iraq and Afghanistan. Sal Giunta's final brush stroke should energize us all to demand that we get the hell out of the entire Southwest Asian debacle. Whatever he does next, I'm sure he'll be successful at it...courage, self-depreciating humor and rigorous integrity. Hooah.
