At the start of Veterans Day weekend in 2012, Army Sgt. Maj. Jeremy Bruns was loading the bed of his Toyota pickup in his Fayetteville, N.C. driveway. It was 9:30 a.m., and the sun was out.

I knew of SGM Bruns who was a 1SG at the time in our BN. The story definitely makes you think again before getting behind the wheel. It makes you realize that your decisions can greatly affect others. You are putting yourself and everyone else on the road in danger when you get in that driver seat.

The original post was just released and this is another from a while back if anyone wants to read more into the story

I don’t drink at all and I’m also big enough and strong enough to take car keys from friends and even strangers to keep them from driving drunk! It’s worth a few bruises to prevent a tragedy! Been doing it since high school.
