Hero


Sep 14, 2011, 11:16 PM

A lttle message for all good Clemson Tigers. This Saturday a young Marine by the name of Kyle Carpenter
will be attending the game. Kyle is a real true hero as he took a hand grenade in afganestand(sic) to save the lives of his fellow Marines, Kyle is a Tiger as he attended Clemson before entering the Marines so be sure to welcome him back to Tigertown

Kyle should lead Tiger Walk, not Tribble Reese.

The only man worthy enough to join Corporal Carpenter leading the Tiger Walk is Danny Ford himself

Danny Ford is God.***

fiancee that has stood by him.

He should be recognized by Clemson at the game Saturday for his service,courage,and sacrifice. Last week would have been more appropriate but it still should be done.

Sep 15, 2011, 8:41 AM

while he is in Clemson, I will personally fly down from Philly and kick your ###.

Show him respect, and if you see him walking by your tailgate, you better offer him anything you have. Just remember, he nearly gave everything he had.

God Bless, Lance Corporal Carpenter.

If anyone knows where he will be or how to reach him I'd love a T-Mail.

I would like to shake this man's hand and introduce my kids to a true American hero.

Agreed. It would be nice to shake his hand and thank him.***

Send this story to the team---if they can't get "up" to play in front of this individual, nothing will work.
