1. It looks like they're replaying his speech.

2. "If you don't give him a purple heart, I'll give him one of mine."

Murtha talking about a young soldiers who lost both hands in a non-combat situation. Murtha asked his mother if they needed anything and she said "a purple heart." The friggin army wouldn't give him one because it was non-combat injury (in a war zone.) The man got the purple heart.
:cry: He was fighting back tears.

She was very effusive about it.
