Army Capt. Rescues Iraqi Child From Well (VIDEO)

On Fox & Friends this morning, they had a feature on you’ll not see anywhere else; a true hero soldier in Iraq. Capt. David Powell is a true American hero, and what he did is nothing short of miraculous. Capt. Powell and his fellow troops found out about a young Iraqi boy who had fallen about 25′ down into a well. What did Capt. Powell do? He and his troops began digging and digging and digging. Capt. Powell finally achieved success and got to the young boy at the bottom of the fortunately dry well.

As Powell tells it, he was literally plucked from the well by the villagers. They plan to honor him soon with a parade of sorts for his heroism. Don’t you just love stories like this? Too bad we don’t see more of them in the mainstream media. Thank you, Fox, for showcasing this real hero.

Watch the interview here.

Thanks to Uncle Jimbo at BlackFive for some linkage.
