Well, all of the Americans are being honored for their heroism, but two of them are from right here in California. Amazing, since this state is so far left-wing it's ridiculous. It's one of those stories that remind that there is still decency in the world, and it's not coming from the political left of the spectrum.
At the Telegraph UK, "France train attack: Americans hailed as heroes, gunman 'had ties to Isil'."
And the local angle at CBS News 2 Los Angeles:
Also, at the Los Angeles Times, "Americans who took down terrorist were childhood pals.
Plus, at People Magazine, "U.S. Airman Spencer Stone's Heroic Actions Aboard Attacked Train Are 'No Surprise' to Hometown Friends."
And it's a good thing these guys were aboard. The train's crew wasn't about to do jack to stop the attempted jihadi attack. At London's Daily Mail, "Crew on Paris-bound train 'barricaded themselves in their staffroom and locked the door as Kalashnikov-wielding terrorist went on the rampage – leaving PASSENGERS to take him down'."
More at the New York Times, "A Shot, a Glimpse of an AK-47, and U.S. Servicemen Pounced on Gunman on Train to France."
