0h Wow. Tears are in my eyes. Michael Stewart died doing exactly what he wanted to do. It's such a shame, but my I am teary-eyed not just for his debut for LCpl Stewart's lifelong dream to follow in his dad's footsteps. He did it greatly! Semper Fi Marine.
I had just finished Hospital Corps school in San Diego and was at the Naval Hospital on Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base when this action took Mr. Stewart's life. I haven't heard this story before but I was with many Marines who had returned from Vietnam wounded and I heard many of their stories. At that time, I volunteered for AVT school in Pensacola for advanced medical training and survival training as a Med Evac Corpsman. Another story for another day. Thank you Tara for another story of our heroes. May God bless Mike Stewart and all who gave their lives in Vietnam. And may God continue to bless all who have served and who now serve, this great nation.
Thank you Mike Stewart for your bravery and sacrifice. Your actions speak volumes of your love for your fellow warriors and your country. Proud to read your story!
You may have already covered him, but I have MoH Monday suggestion. The well know William Donovan. I just found out he was a recipient in the book I'm reading "The Forgotten 500". The author mentioned it in his coverage of the OSS creation.
Selfless… I hope these lived that he gave himself to rescue but he was giving them the chance when they had none. Semper Fi, Marine! -from an old Navy Corpsman
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Mike Stewart, without question, deserved the MofH, but regardless, exemplified real, true bravery. Sending his mother roses showed real, true love. I’ve got to go; there’s something in my eyes . . . .
Michael Stewart was such an honorable man. Every story told about our heroes reinforces the great debt we owe to our military veterans and their families. If only all Americans understood the cost of their freedom. Heartfelt sympathy to Mike’s family. It cost them dearly too. Shane on anyone who doesn’t show the greatest respect and thankfulness for what has been given for this wonderful country.
Thank you, Tara, for another story of a loving and caring soldier doing his duty for his country and his fellow troops! These young men were incredible human beings!

I agree it should have been a MoH, risking and ultimately losing his life to save his brothers. Rest in peace Marine.
Yep. Should have been a Medal.
