Rare Interview with John Basilone After Guadalcanal (1943) Shortly after receiving the Medal of Honor, U.S. Marine Gunnery Sergeant John Basilone reflected on Guadalcanal with the humility that made him legendary, insisting he was simply part of a good outfit with good men and that anyone in his place would have done the same. Serving with the 1st Battalion, 7th Marines, Basilone earned the nation's highest military decoration after holding his position against repeated Japanese attacks during the Battle of Guadalcanal. According to fellow Marine PFC Nash W. Phillips, he fought for three days and nights, killing 38 Japanese soldiers with a machine gun and pistol. On February 19, 1945, Basilone was killed in action during the first day of the Battle of Iwo Jima after single-handedly destroying a Japanese blockhouse under heavy enemy fire. He was posthumously awarded the Navy Cross.

Medal of Honor Monday 🇺🇸 John Basilone stood his ground on Guadalcanal when his fellow Marines were under a brutal Japanese assault. With ammunition running low and enemy forces closing in, he moved through heavy fire, repaired a damaged machine gun, kept another gun firing, and personally carried ammunition to his men when the supply lines were nearly cut off. For his extraordinary courage, leadership, and refusal to quit under overwhelming odds, Sergeant John Basilone was awarded the Medal of Honor. He later returned to combat and gave his life on Iwo Jima. Valor. Duty. Sacrifice.🇺🇸

How the Real G.I. Joe Survived 30 Rounds at Point-Blank Range “Mitchell Paige is the Marine that Hasbro toys made the G.I. Joe doll in honor of. Because what he did on Guadalcanal is a little crazy. At one point, every single Marine machine gunner had been killed or wounded. All the machine guns were out of action. There was one machine gun down at one end of the ridge that could cover the whole ridge. If the Japanese got to that gun before Mitchell Paige got to that gun, they would control the ridge.”

In 2015 John Harwood moderated a Republican primary debate. He spent the night rudely interrupting and insulting the candidates. He also told numerous blatant lies during the debate. Even for a member of the biased MSM, his performance was a new level of disgraceful. Later it was revealed that Harwood had been in close contact with the head of the Clinton campaign, John Podesta. Harwood discussed his debate performance with Podesta and even emailed Podesta asking him what questions to ask Republican candidates during interviews. That's John Harwood.
