Congratulations to these brave American soldiers from the 65th Infantry Regiment, known as the Borinqueneers. These soldiers were part of an all-volunteer Puerto-Rican unit that fought bravely in WWI, WWII, and Korea. Well deserved. HOOAH!

Airborne, Sir! Hard to believe you're the only one who made a comment, considering these are American soldiers we're talking about. I would suggest folks who are self-proclaimed Military History buffs, read the history of the 65th Infantry Regiment.

I know way too much about the 65th! Beside having multiple uncles who belong to the unit, I was raised a walking distance from Camp Tortugero, VB; and have read various history books from the unit.
