"This is Marcus, a Marine Corps veteran who served in Fallujah from 2007 to 2009. Home eight years, he still gets night terrors every single night - waking up screaming three to four times before sunrise. His girlfriend moved into the spare bedroom two years ago out of safety.

His VA therapist recommended a trained PTSD service dog. The waitlist: four years. The cost: $35,000 he didn't have. So six months ago, Marcus adopted Duke, a five-year-old chocolate Lab, from the county shelter - surrendered because his last owner said he was "too needy at night."

The first week Duke came home, Marcus had a 3 AM nightmare. Duke jumped onto the bed unasked and laid his full 90 pounds across Marcus's chest - deep pressure therapy.

Marcus woke up without screaming for the first time in years, found Duke staring at him, and cried holding him.

Now Duke does this automatically, every single night, the moment Marcus shows the first signs. His therapist reviewed the bedroom camera footage and said: "Duke is performing textbook deep pressure therapy for nightmare interruption. That's exactly what we train $35,000 service dogs to do. He's doing it instinctively."

The "too needy" behavior that got Duke returned to the shelter is the exact trait saving Marcus's life every night. One shelter's reject is one veteran's lifeline.

A Coast Guard vessel makes contact with Kelsey Pfendler about 500mi off the coast of Hawaii, and the entire ship sings her HAPPY BIRTHDAY, and offers her words of encouragement as she finishes her row.

Pfendler is on track to be the first American Woman to row solo & unsupported from CA to Hawaii.

She’s less than 500mi from her destination, and has been rowing for over 30 days.

She’s gone VIRAL, as she’s posted periodic updates, documenting how she’s surviving in the middle of the ocean, alone.

Loved this very honest moment, of men and women who’ve been as sea for their entire career, saluting this woman’s accomplishments.

@echocharles At an art festival in Omaha rocking a very early edish GOOD shirt. Security guy at the gate went on comms as I entered. Next security guy...I asked if I looked suspicious. He said, "No, the guy at the gate broadcast props for a dude repping the OG Jocko shirt."👊

CHICK-FIL-A MANAGER STOPS MID-RUSH TO PRAY OVER EVERYONE IN THE RESTAURANT

San Antonio, TX lunchtime at a Chick-fil-A.

The manager walks through the dining room, thanks everyone for coming in, then delivers a heartfelt prayer asking for God’s blessing, strength, and peace over all the diners.

When he finishes… the whole place says “Amen” and applauds.
You just don’t see this kind of moment very often anymore.

In a world that feels like it’s moving a million miles an hour, a simple act of faith in the middle of a busy fast-food lunch rush hit different.

What do you think?

I thought it was hyperbole when they were saying there might be 15,000+ Nebraska fans in the Paycom Center today…
(Paycom only holds 18,203 and the other 3 teams bring fans too)

Update: It wasn’t hyperbole…

[Jesse Kelly @JesseKellyDC]

That is legit the greatest thing I’ve ever seen in my life.

After some leftist Team USA athletes spoke negatively about America while abroad.

Meanwhile, Tamyra Mensah-Stock:

“I love representing the U.S. I freakin’ love living there. I love it, and I’m so happy I get to represent USA!”

Dilip Joseph was an American Doctor in Afghanistan, training his local peers when he was kidn*pped by Taliban fighters hoping for a large ransom. SEAL Team Six had other plans. Just four days after the kidnapping, the operators infiltrated the mountains by helicopter, landing kilometers away from the target compound. They spent the entire night navigating steep terrain in darkness to reach the heavily guarded location undetected. Hostage rescues like this operate under the highest level of secrecy, and the team masked their approach until the very last moment.
Chief Special Warfare Operator Nicolas Checque was leading the assault force through the courtyard when he noticed they'd been spotted. An enemy guard saw them and quickly disappeared into the building where the hostage was being held. Checque knew what that meant. If the guard reached Dr. Joseph first, the mission was over. Without hesitation, he sprinted after the guard and was the first man to make entry, fully knowing the men inside were alerted and prepared. He was met with enemy fire at close range and mortally wounded.
The teammates who flooded in behind him neutralized the threat and rescued Dr. Joseph unharmed. Checque's decision to go in first and bring the fight to the enemy without wasting a second saved the hostage's life.
