I as a female veteran am absolutely ashamed of this action! We served along our fellow Americans and sacrificed everything to protect our nation and the constitution. It doesn’t matter if we are women, black, brown. There is no race in the military, but the human race!!!! Do the honorable and what is right and reinstate their names and honor they deserve for serving their country!
My reservists and I were lost in the mountains of Camp Pendleton. It had been days, maybe even weeks since we had seen any form of civilization. What should have been a simple land nav training exercise quickly became a true test of survival. If it was not for Corporal Hundley finding us on his 100 mile fun run, carrying us all down, and dropping us off at the main side Dominos… I get emotional every time I think about it
I was a demotivated Staff Sergeant and was about to EAS until I met Corporal Hundly. Cpl Hundley’s initiative and judgement is above peers. His communication abilities are respected by senior leaders and peers across the globe. If it wasn’t for Cpl Hundley I would have EAS, but, his motivation is contagious which convinced me to re-enlist.
Corporal Hundley saved me from being beaten in a dark alley. He said "I'll always be there when you least expect me, but when you need me the most". Thanks man. I'll never forget you.
Corporal Hundley once fireman carried me 4 miles when I rolled my ankle. He didn’t seem phased by it at all, and continued our FEX for the next two weeks.
I was in the jungle with Cpl Hundley and a Habu snake came and bit me, with no hesitation Cpl hundley killed the habu and sucked out all the venom from my bite wound saved my life
Corporal Hundley once talked me off the edge. It was a high stakes, no reward type of mission and everything had gone pretty bad. Transpo broke down, comms were being intercepted, multiple casualties, Charlie hot on our tail, but Cpl Hundley was there to guide us through it all. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have made it back home and communism would have spread. God bless Hundley, this nation will forever be in his debt
