Private Carlton Barrett was possibly the smallest man in his regiment.
5 feet 4 inches tall. 125 pounds.
On the morning of June 6, 1944, he landed at Omaha Beach in neck-deep water, machine gun fire cutting the surface all around him. He made it to shore.
Then he turned around and went back in.
A soldier was drowning. Barrett pulled him out. Then another. Then another. For hours, under constant fire, this 125-pound man waded back into the surf again and again, pulling drowning men to safety and physically carrying the wounded to evacuation boats offshore.
But he didn't stop there.
He ran dispatches the full length of the fire-swept beach. He found soldiers paralyzed by shock and calmed them back into action. He appeared wherever the crisis was worst, doing whatever needed doing, treating rank and personal safety as irrelevant details.
He did this for hours without stopping.
His Medal of Honor citation says his courage had "an inestimable effect on his comrades." That is military understatement for: this small, anonymous man held that section of beach together through sheer force of will.
He survived the war.
His comrades later said his life darkened after he came home. He lived quietly and died in 1986 in California, largely unknown outside of military history circles.
5 feet 4 inches. 125 pounds. He went back in.
Remember him.

#AlexCoughlan Has Been Laid To Rest On His Birthday
In a cruel twist of fate, Alex Coughlan has been laid to rest on his 38th birthday (May 30th, 2026). This specific date was incidental, as his loved ones did not have Alex returned to them until Friday May 29th.
RTE were in attendance this morning. No other media appeared to be present. RTE's attendance felt like a box-ticking exercise: standing, arms folded, across the carpark of Stafford's funeral home in Ballyfermot, gazing at the mourners gathered, as a faded Irish flag flew on a pole nearby, tethered by a single cable tie.
They reported little on the touching aspects of what was to be a celebration of Alex's life. The omissions feel calculated and in keeping with the lack of overall coverage of Alex's death. They published a short, dispassionate article about what was an incredibly moving service. I have, at the time of writing this piece, found no other articles online about the funeral itselfโnot even a mere mention today that it was taking place.
The service for Alex was open to all, and this fact further indicates that what RTE and other media have not reported illustrates a lack of respect and a desire to conceal, as opposed to a desire to honour privacy.
In the wake of his passing, RTE (purposely?) reported inaccurate details, leading to incorrect speculation and victim-blaming (which caused further unnecessary pain for his loved ones) around the circumstances of the day Alex left his home (and did not return until yesterday, where he lay in repose).
Now, that is quite enough about the government's mouthpiece.
Today is about Alex. Mourners were asked to make May 30th Alex's day. Everyone who gathered was asked to sing "Happy Birthday." As tears are not usually seen when singing "Happy Birthday," it was a well-wish like no other, for a human being who, for many there, was like no other. The words were sung in a heartfelt manner, with the sad realisation that he should be here celebrating.
The backdrop behind the casket (with a single red rose upon it) was the Irish tricolour with lighting that subdued the green, white, and orange as it stood, standing in silent guard, as Alex made his final departure.
Pictures and clips of a smiling Alex and his family, friends, and significant life events played throughout the service. He was spoken of as the glue that held his family together. It was clear Alex was a shining and guiding light in the lives of many. The celebrant spoke of the necessity to ensure that the circumstances leading to Alex's untimely departure be prevented, so that no family ever has to suffer such a loss again.
In the final minutes, all who gathered were asked to sing "Ireland's Call" as family members carried Alex's coffin upon their shoulders past the crowd. He had been a proud Ireland rugby supporter in life.
It goes without saying, an abundance of tears fell throughout the service, but particularly during singing. Upon leaving, people were asked to have a shot of his favourite tipple in Alex's honour (Jameson and Coke) as they made their way out.
Alex was brought to Glasnevin Cemetery for a private cremation.
If you are reading this, raise a toast for Alex today, who will be forever young at 38.

"Irelandโs Call
Come the day and come the hour Come the power and the glory We have come to answer Our Country's call
From the four proud provinces of Ireland Ireland, Ireland Together standing tall Shoulder to shoulder We'll answer Ireland's call
From the four proud provinces of Ireland Ireland, Ireland Together standing tall Shoulder to shoulder We'll answer Ireland's call
Hearts of steel And heads unbowing Vowing never to be broken We will fight, until We can fight no more
From the four proud provinces of Ireland Ireland, Ireland Together standing tall Shoulder to shoulder We'll answer Ireland's call."

ALEX COUGHLAN'S FAMILY asked me to share this beautiful, touching clip of him reading to his little nephew. It really conveys the type of person Alex was. If you would like to get to know who Alex was and how he lived his life, then please watch the duration of this short memorial video in his honour. Please also take part in what is asked at the end of the video, and also use these hashtags when sharing: #AlexCoughlan #RememberHim #SpeakHisName
Let's keep his name and face in the public eye. Make sure this memorial video reaches every person in this country and beyond. Share it with everyone you know. Share it the world over.
NEVER FORGET ALEX.
Unfortunately, it may be shadowbanned, so we all need to pull together on this one.
Just to say... Alex was a truly wonderful person by all accounts. It is important to keep this post and all comments about HIM. Please. For this one post. Do this in memory of Alex. Because one cruel and final indignity that is visited upon those who have had their lives stolen is the fact that the unforgivable act can end up defining that person in the public eye by that very act itself. Who the person was can be lost amidst the tragedy. Alex was someone I would have loved to know. I wish I'd had that great privilege and I know he comes from an amazing family. They will read these comments most likely. So please be mindful of that.
Thank you.
Please keep this going guys. #SayHisName #AlexCoughlan #RememberAlex #RememberHim.
Alex has been so dehumanised and it can be lost that he was truly an amazing man go gave so much of himself and brought so much joy. It likely helps his family to see people share this beautiful clip in this otherwise exceptionally devastating and bleak time for them.

@SuzieD755164 My sincere thoughts and prayers are with Alex's family & friends and especially the little man in the video who's going to miss out on such a wonderful uncle. This broke my heart may Alex's beautiful soul rest in peace. #AlexCoughlan #RememberHim #SpeakHisName
Rest in peace Alex.
I'm sorry for how your life was taken so violently.
They've put all of us in danger & I can never forgive anyone who has welcomed these barbaric animals into our country
Something strange has happened to some Irish
