I heard that after the presentation, SFC Leroy Petry held out the medal and said, if you don't have one of these, drop!  His Ranger buddies were more than happy to oblige.  :)

His real fullboreness was the fact that he went back for another tour afterward.  Nothing stops him.

Here's article titled "Hero's Handshake" that includes SFC Petry's account of the action. First time I'd seen him telling the story.  Full Bore.
