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.

Never trusted the boy scouts, especially their interest in escorting elderly ladies. ;-)

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!
