Hero’s prayer

Nicholas Oresko, the oldest living Medal of Honor recipient, has died at the age of 96.

Before the battle at the Battle of the Bulge where the Army Master Sergent took out two bunkers of German soldiers, Oresko prayed, “Lord, I know I’m going to die; let’s just make it fast, make it quick, because I know this is the end.”

As Patton so aptly said, “It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.”

 

Thank you, Sergent Oresko. God speed, sir.
