SHARK BITE

I have a friend. Lets call him L. He is funny. His is kind. He is crazy. He is a Marine. He loves his country and has served two tours in Iraq. He is a true hero.

A few weeks ago his troop was training off the coast of Hawaii. While they were diving a curious baby Tiger Shark decided to check out what they were doing. Apparently the shark came out of nowhere and took a snack bite out of L's arm and another Marine. Then he proceeded to clamp down on a third guy only this time he did not let go.  Little Mister Tiger decided he liked this guy best and swam away carrying the guy out to sea as he was thrashing for his life.

Let us think for a minute... what would you do if a shark started to swim out to sea with your friend? Panic? Freak out? Stare in shock?

L and another Marine swam after the shark. They caught Mister Tiger and started beating on him.



The shark let go and the guy lived. They all lived.

How is that for an ego booster?   

HOORAH!
~SOS~
