By your heading, I thought you were referring to this:
Courageous U.S. servicemen, college student overpower gunman aboard train in Northern France - thwarting possible terror attack, officials say
"A trio of fearless Americans thwarted a possible terror attack Friday when they subdued a gunman on a high-speed passenger train in northern France, according to witnesses and authorities."

I'm wildy impressed that the Mayor of Arras keeps a supply of bravery medals for moments like this. He must have been a Boy Scout in his youth.

Hats off to the heroic fellows who stopped the Islamist from massacring everyone in the carriage, and quite probably the rest of the train. They deserved a 'gong' for that!
