00:00Let's see, I think I fit it in there like that last time.
00:13My name's Aidan Dunham-Dean.
00:17This is Jason Dunham.
00:20He was in the Marine Corps, and he served with my dad, and he's a Medal of Honor recipient.
00:27That was the first guy that we'd ever lost.
00:31He was my best friend.
00:35So I was angry, I was angry.
00:38I had a lot of things.
00:47What would I would have done different?
00:49I don't know.
00:50If I had done anything different, I might not be here.
00:57I love you, Dad.
00:59On a dusty road in western Iraq,
01:02Corporal Dunham gave his own life so that the men under his command might live.
01:07That bastard put his helmet over a damn grenade and jumped on top of it.
01:11Like it was beyond belief.
01:13He not only talked about it, he practiced it.
01:15He cares so much about his Marines that he's going to practice protecting them
01:20by covering the grenade with his own helmet.
01:25Who does that?
01:28Multiple casualties due to IEDs.
01:31Where are they at? Any positive?
01:34I don't know.
01:36What are we making fire from?
01:38Let's go get some.
01:41RPG teams are west.
01:43Rockets to the west.
01:45How many meters?
01:48They're definitely close.
01:50Oh, God.
01:53Hey, two cars!
01:56Get over here! Get over here!
01:58Come on! Come on!
