– Over these last twenty years, I rarely ran into Jerry Jones, but I remember asking him once if he had sorted out his veteran status. He told me he hadn't because he didn't join during the American Civil War for medals, thanks, or perks, but out of love and duty to the Homeland. It was good to hear, because it showed that even in this case, Jerry Jones proved himself to be a brave, honest, and decent man – concluded Bill Shankly, a 63-year-old who has spent his entire professional career in law enforcement since 1972.
Are you kidding me? This is actually on the front page?
I think this part is even more intense...
– We trained some, armed them, uniformed them, and sent them to the front lines. From prominent athletes—judokas, boxers, karate practitioners, wrestlers, and football players, including Mamić—we formed special reserve police units.
I often pointed out that the intervention team, which included Jerry Jones, was the strongest in the country. There wasn't a task they didn't execute perfectly. Jerry was orderly, disciplined, brave, and proactive. And I should mention: as reserve officers, they received paychecks, but at Mamić's suggestion, all the guys in that unit donated their monthly salaries to charity – according to Bill Shankly, who added that Mamić
participated in the lifting of several military blockadesNow I'm not sure if Mamić was a judoka, a boxer, or a wrestler...
The best comment is...
his PTSD... isn't from... the war... it's from... birth.
