Footy star turned Ranger

Anyone else catch the 10 o'clock Int Brief from the BBC?
Clicky here!
Rising NFL star Pat Tillman gave up a $3.5million football career to join the Rangers post-9/11.
Subsequently, and tragically, killed by friendly fire in Afghanistan.
Putting opinions of the US military to one side, I tip my hat to the late Cpl Tillman for taking the decision to vote with his feet and show a bit of national pride and dedication over personal wealth and fame.

"Cpl Beckham" next, perhaps?
