Cpl. Kyle Carpenter | Just Getting Started 

"The enemy killed me..... I came back" Most badass statement I've heard in a long time.

Once a Marine, always a Marine. Don't let anybody take that away from you

It is an honor to be a citizen in a country that breeds such men.

I had the honor of meeting with Cpl. Carpenter. A very humble and honorable young man and Marine. I just want to know - who in the hell could give this short video a thumbs down?

Thank you for your service and god bless you in all you do. F*** the Taliban!

A Maine is always a marine! Nobody could stop us devil dogs

Jesus was also a Carpenter.....He came back too!!!.......and even when you haven't died, you must never give up.......but when you have died....you really do have the strength of God with you....use your gift wisely friend, you returned for a reason....your Journey is only just beginning....God bless you

Semper Fi brother. That just inspired me to no end.

This is so inspiring! My grandson left Sunday for San Diego to start his boot camp at Camp Pendleton. Cant help but be worried but we are so proud of him! You are a huge inspiration! God bless you!

Marines you got to love them. Kyle great attitude and from one Vet to another Thank you for your service and sacrifice. God Bless

OOHRAH, Semper Fi My Brother!

I can't think of a better person then one who would throw down his own life to save his fellow Americans!

God was watching over this marine. Much respect for this man, Semper Fi.

That's awesome. I can't imagine all the negative thoughts that must have gone through his head. Overcoming not only that but also the physical limitations that this injury imposed on him really gives me inspiration. I see some people have given a thumbs down to this video. Even if you have an issue with the war that's just gutless. I did notice while scrolling through the comments that none of those down voters left any reason as to why they would feel that way. So I assume it's just a knee jerk reaction for some people just because he was involved in a war. Either that or they are fine with down voting, but too chicken shit to let everyone know who they are.

Thank you for your service and God Bless You!!

Ooh fuckin rah!

Semper Fi. You got my utmost respect.

CONGRATULATIONS MARINE !

You sir are what separates the men from the boys. God bless you!

its sad and pathetic how you people are arguing on a video of a true warrior that risked his life and over came various obstacles in his life after he was injured you all need to grow up and instead of arguing on this video be proud of this Marine that he served our country and risked his life and live he's a role model and a younger model of Chest Puller this man is a hero he saved his brotherd lives imagine going through what he went through no one will ever understand it.

Good luck, soldier. Парень храни привет из России, мы уважаем тебя и твой подвиг. Никто не говорил, что это будет легко, но я верю, что вы добьетесь успеха.

Mr. Carpenter, Can you name a time when you were in a stressful situation and what action you took to resolve it? "...I jumped on a Grenade to save my buddies. I flatlined many times in the emergency room and eventually came back to run marathons and provide motivation for Marines and every other servicemen in our Armed Forces." "I see...well Mr. Carpenter I think you are overqualified to be an Assistant manager of Poultry here at Wal-Mart. Just make sure you keep motivating people so they don't have to work here for $11 an hour." Semper Fi Marines!

Ooh fuckin rah

You are my hero, Mr. Carpenter!

Semper Fi.

No matter how much the enemy tries to beat us down, as a Marine we always find a way to bounce back. MOS (0321,3536) Courthouse Bay, Camp Lejeune, NC 2004-2010
