Semper Fi Fund Marines who are amputees themselves, visited the Boston Bombing Victims to offer encouragement and support and in this case you'll see a mother and daughter, as you all know by now, the majority of the injuries reported from that horrendous attack where below the hip and knee amputations from the low positioning of the projectiles. The injuries the Boston victims received are the same that our soldiers are and have experienced in Iraq and Afghanistan and the IED's and roadside bombs they come in contact with. This is a very touching video, real, nothing hollywood about it, and hard hitting, thank you Semper Fi Fund Marines for stepping up to the plate, you guys never cease to humble us with what you do to help those with traumatic injuries.

Saw the interview that Brian Williams did with the women amputees. They said the visits, from the soldiers, were one of the most important events that helped them in their recovery.

I think it's priceless, Lew, I loved the part when the second Marine approached the mom, and told her she was beautiful, and he waived his arms over the area where her legs were, and he stated, "This does not matter, you are a beautiful woman". How awesome. Brought tears to my eyes man.
