    Royal Marine saves comrades.

    A Royal Marine could receive the highest award for gallantry after he saved the lives of his comrades by throwing himself onto an exploding grenade in Afghanistan, it has been reported.

    Wow, what a lucky, gutsy guy. Not too many survive that kind of act in one piece.

    I'd say it's worth a VC. One of our Marines got the Blue Max for doing the same (sadly without the same results).
