There are moments in life
when we find out what we're made of.
They are grueling, terrifying,
liable to tear your guts inside out.
Well, my friends, this is one of those moments.
And you're gonna remember what happened here.
When you faced your greatest foes.
Those that are much more ruthless
and unrelenting than any fire.
And I just pray to God
you can tell your grandkids
we buried them in our dust.

We are talking about
