I had the distinct honor of meeting this American Hero when I was in high school. He served with the assistant SAI in my high schools ROTC program in Vietnam. He was in the 5th Special Forces and a was the keynote speaker at our Military Ball in 1983. He was very humble and reserved. He never bragged about his exploits and if it hadn't been for the person who announced him, no one would've known all that this brave soldier had accomplished. I shook his hand and took a picture with him. He gave me advice that ive carried with me through Desert Storm, Iraqi Freedom, & Enduring Freedom. The same advice I gave my son when he joined the Marines and went to Syria! He never once referred to himself as a Hero although by definition, he was one. I was very saddened when I heard of his passing. Rest easy Sgt. Youve done your duty and are relieved. I'll see you at the Rally Point! God Bless

I went through the last draft of that war, scared to death, that i would be one of the young men chosen to go and fight in a war i did not believe in. Would i have gone, yes. Would i have been scared, yes, do i think i could have done what this man did, no. But many i have spoken to of this war, told me, you don't know the heart you have, when you see a fellow American shot, and needs help, what you are capable of. I know that i have read many stories of men like him, and i stand in awe, and honor such a man. When i see thumbs down, it makes my blood boil to the point of rage, as what kind of person could do that, and be a American. I guess that is what this country is becoming. Master Sergeant Benavidez, i hear you have passed away, and i have said a prayer for you and the people who loved you, and served with you. You are truly one of my Hero's.
