HERO WOD Dedicated to U.S. Sgt. Zachary D. Tellier, 31, of Charlotte, NC (USA) a combat infantryman with the 4th Squadron, 73rd Cavalry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, at Fort Bragg. He died Sept. 29, 2007, of wounds sustained while on a ground patrol in Afghanistan.
The previous April, Tellier’s unit was conducting a mounted patrol when one of its vehicles drove over and detonated a bomb, which set the vehicle on fire, according to a statement from the 82nd Airborne. Tellier pulled two paratroopers out of the vehicle to safety, suffering severe burns to his hands. He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with valor for his actions.
After he was burned, Tellier jumped up in the turret to return fire, said Sgt. Michael Layton, a member of Tellier’s unit. A lieutenant made Tellier get out of the vehicle because of his injuries, Layton said. “Zachary Tellier has to be the biggest hero I’ve ever known or heard of, not just because of what he did, but because of his personality,” Layton said. “He came in the Army because he wanted to be around soldiers and serve his country, and he paid the ultimate sacrifice.”
Tellier is survived by his wife, Sara Tellier of Atlanta, Ga.; his father, David W. Tellier of Groton, Mass.; and his mother, Pamela Rodriguez, of Falmouth, Mass.

Encourage everyone to examine how they can follow in his footsteps in the words of “he empties himself”.
Christ’s Example of Humility – Phillipians 2:1-11
1 If there is any encouragement in Christ, any solace in love, any participation in the Spirit, any compassion and mercy,
2 complete my joy by being of the same mind, with the same love, united in heart, thinking one thing.a
3 Do nothing out of selfishness or out of vainglory; rather, humbly regard others as more important than yourselves,b
4 each looking out not for his own interests, but [also] everyone for those of others.c
5 Have among yourselves the same attitude that is also yours in Christ Jesus,*
6 Who,* though he was in the form of God,d
did not regard equality with God something to be grasped.*
7 Rather, he emptied himself, taking the form of a slave,
coming in human likeness;* and found human in appearance,e
8 he humbled himself,f becoming obedient to death, even death on a cross.*
9 Because of this, God greatly exalted him and bestowed on him the name* that is above every name,g
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend,*
of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth,h
11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,*
to the glory of God the Father.i
Pledge, pray, and on our way!
