U.S. Marine Sgt. Luke Miller is seen earlier this week in Boise. Miller was presented the Non-Commissioned Officer Association Military Vanguard Award earlier today in Washington, D.C. He was honored for jumping from his tank to help fellow Marines injured in another tank when it was disabled by a massive bomb during a mission to seize a bridge. You can read all about it here/Idaho Statesman photo by Chris Butler.
