I know we've all heard of this, so here's a thread for it. There are Legion of Honor knightings from this, so let's talk about it :)

There's a lot to think about the whole thing, but I think the biggest thing I would note specifically is that I think military training had the most to do with the success of these unarmed men taking down someone that armed. Wow!
Stone is apparently also a martial artist, so he may have been great with that. But he was sound asleep (so terrifying!)! It was Alek, just recently fighting in Afghanistan, who nudged him awake and jumping to action together, with Sadler following after. I know other folks are heroes, too, but that crucial moment strikes me as key.
The dude was already shooting. My God! And over 500 people on the train. Just wow.
