Joseph Kittinger, Jr, Award Winner Chris Everhart
A former Marine defends his camping children from a bear:
    The ex-Marine saved the lives of his three young sons when a 300-pound bear attacked their Georgia campsite last weekend.

    While cleaning up after dinner, the family came face to face with the large animal.

    "From out of nowhere we heard this loud crash," Everhart said on "Good Morning America." "For a second, I didn't know what it was, but I realized it was a bear. I went to the back of the Jeep to get my pots and pans to scare the bear off."

    At the same time, Everhart's 6-year-old son, Logan, tried to frighten the animal. Instead of running away, the bear turned on the boy. Logan's brother, Kyle, tried to help him.

    "I threw about five rocks at the bear to keep him away," Kyle Everhart said.

    Realizing his sons could be killed, Everhart grabbed a log and threw it at the bear's head, striking and killing him.
Gall as big as church bells.

On the other hand, you have to do what you have to do.
