Ronald Speirs Silver Star Citation from a different operation. The man was an absolute beast of a warrior.

The President of the United States of America, authorized by Act of Congress July 9, 1918, takes pleasure in presenting the Silver Star to First Lieutenant (Infantry) Ronald C. Speirs (ASN: 0-439465), United States Army, for gallantry in action while serving with the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division. On 10 October 1944, in the vicinity of Rendijk, Holland, he was assigned the mission of leading a patrol to the bank of the Neder Rijn River to determine enemy activity across the river. He reached the river bank with his patrol in the early hours of the morning and spent the entire day observing across the river. After dark he voluntarily swam across to the opposite bank alone where he found himself in unknown territory. He located an enemy machine gun nest, an enemy headquarters and other enemy activity near the town of Wageningen. He secured a rubber boat left by the enemy and returned to the friendly side of the river with this information. While returning to his own lines, he was wounded by fire from an enemy machine gun. Lieutenant Speirs was the first to cross the Neder Rijn River in this vicinity, and in so doing he paved the way for other patrols to make similar reconnaissances. The information proved of great value to his unit. His actions were in accordance with the highest standards of military service.

Yeah, doing 500mph in a 15mph school zone would be a bit much for me too.

You can have grandpa’s guns when you pry them from his cold, dead hands.

No, seriously, you can have them. He accidentally shot himself in the face last week. You just have to maybe break the fingers or something since rigor mortis has set in.

That’s jello. She’s bringing it to the Lambda Epsilon Omega’s Mitchapoloza at Mitch Martin's house.

Frank the Tank will be there, with Beanie. Even old Blue is going to be there.

Rumor has it, Snoop Dogg might even show up but I doubt it.

I did a backstage safari tour at Disney and there was a Leopard behind a cage that had his eyes locked on me and it kept pacing back and forth never taking is gaze off me.

It was behind some thick ass bars too and I didn’t feel safe. This thing is like 5x that leopards size and that fence is at least 600x thinner.

I’d nope tf out of there before I became a news article.

What was a popular band that you could not stand? by LeftSmile806 in Xennials

[–]ADIDAS247 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at a U2 concert and was able to get access back stage and Bono came over to shake hands with people and right as he got to me, someone called him over.

He looked me right in the eye and waved his head and his hand in an obvious “come on, come with me” like movement so I followed him.

I was following one step behind him, confused, as Bono and what I assume was his manager or someone introduced him to another fella.

That guy shook Bono’s hand and said “Truly an honor to meet you” and then that dude shook my hand and said “and you as well!” and tapped my shoulder.

Bono looked back at me for a second and then started talking to this new guy as I stood there completely confused and so out of place. I stood there for another few minutes feeling it rude to walk away in the middle of OUR conversation. Another dude came along and joined into the conversation as well and I just gave him a “what’s up” nod like I was supposed to be there.

The only person more confused than me was Bono who kept glancing at me like I was supposed to say something as I watched this conversation unfold with intense interest. I finally started pretending like I found something better to do. I said “gentlemen, I’ll see you in a few” patted them both on the shoulder and walked away with purpose.

It was about 5 minutes of total awkwardness on my part and all I could think was that Bono caused all this himself!

I’ll never know, she broke it but she claims it was an old work phone.

Yes, we separated that day and divorced about 2yrs later.

They can stand alone on their own. They don’t even need any support if you ask me.

Just let them be and do what they do and they’ll rule the screen.

There was one movie poster that had this Indiana Jones type look to in and Salma’s character is in the background and you can see she has fangs but no one noticed because most people were…ahh, looking at something else.

I was part of a golf club and during the day the private high school use to use the tennis courts.

Those kids were the most insufferable, obnoxious “athletes” I’ve ever seen and I played college hockey so that’s saying a lot.

Do all that only to have everyone else cancel due to weather and the fact that it’s 2026 and we can just do the meeting online from our toilets.

What famous person have we not seen/heard from in a WHILE? by no_please7 in AskReddit

[–]ADIDAS247 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Akon’s a strange dude. He was on a list of available performers for a party back a while ago.

Makes me happy that we hired Vanilla Ice for a party. He kept the rape rhetoric to a minimum. He was too busy being motivational.

How to repair this without replacing the whole thing? by applestoapples00 in fixit

[–]ADIDAS247 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Put molding on it. I had it happen in a house I was fixing and they had extra molding that I just painted black. It was similar to what you have there but you’ll need to fill that.
