Purple Heart Ceremony Held for Marines Slain by Terrorist – Guess Who Doesn’t Show?

maxresdefaultTribute was paid Wednesday to four brave Marines who lost their lives too soon, and in a most horrific and unjust way.

You might recall the heinous terrorist attack that occurred at two military installations in Chattanooga, Tennessee back in July, 2015 — that’s when a man named Muhammad Youssef Abdulazeez opened fire, first on a recruiting center, then on a U.S. Navy Reserve center. Before the terrorist was shot dead by a police officer, he claimed the lives of four Marines and one Navy sailor and injured a Marine recruitment officer . . .

Now, Military Times reports that Purple Heart medals were presented to the families of the Marines slain as well — Gunnery Sgt. Thomas Sullivan, Staff Sgt. David Wyatt, Sgt. Carson Holmquist and Lance Cpl. Squire “Skip” Wells: . . .

“Our brothers were taken from us; your sons, your husbands, your fathers, your brothers were taken from us,” McMillian said, according to a Marine Corps news release. “But what cannot, and will not ever be taken from us is the incredible impressions they made on each and every one of us” . . .

But guess who was missing? Based on the report, no mention was made of any representative from the Obama administration attending the service. This comes as no shock, however, given that the only lives in which the administration feigns interest are criminals shot in self-defense by white police officers.
