Thank you for your service

From CBS 2:

More than 2,300 sailors, Marines and members of the Coast Guard will be gracing the streets of New York City this weekend. What will the experience will be like? We wanted to find out firsthand and share it with you. CBS2's Vanessa Murdock followed a Marine from shore to shore as he set foot in the city for the first time.

Rapist scared off in Whitestone

From the Daily News:

Racing to rescue a helpless woman from the clutches of a would-be rapist, Bryan Teichman had just seconds Wednesday to decide whether he should start yelling - or revert to his Marine training and attack the man.

"My gut said to scream first, to avoid the conflict," said the 31-year-old Queens resident. "So I screamed, you know, some profanities, but basically: 'Get off her!'"

That was enough, police said, to send the suspect running - and for Teichman to be hailed as the city's newest hero.
