Transcript
There are stories of heroism. I met a mom and dad who had a 14-year-old boy at Camp La Junta, a boys camp. Their 14-year-old son was awakened at 3 in the morning. The water was rising. The counselor said, let's go save the little boys. And they went down to the seven, eight, nine-year-old boys and pulled them out of their camps through the crashing water. And this mom and dad were crying. Now their son survived. And I said, look, your son will always have this trauma. You will always have this trauma. But at the same time, your son will always know when he was 14 years old that there are little boys and one day there are men who are alive because he had the courage as a 14-year-old to risk his life to save them.
