Marine cuts off finger for love...


[Media Source*]

As odd (see source link) as it may sound a Marine chose to sacrifice his ring finger in an attempt to save his wedding ring. The 19 year old marine was wounded in a fire fight in Fallujah receiving wounds in the legs and in his left hand. When doctors told Lance Cpl. David Battle that he would have to sacrifice his ring finger or the wedding band he wore, he told the doctors to cut off the finger.


When doctors prepared to cut off his wedding ring in order to save his finger David Battle replied:
"But that would mean destroying my wedding ring," he said. "My wife is the strongest woman I know. She's basically running two people's lives since I've been gone. I don't think I could ever repay her or show her how grateful ... how much I love my wife, my soul mate."



I have no words worthy do describe this Marines devotion to his wife. Some may call it stupidity, others love, while I simply say it represents nothing less than dedication. Selah!
