Alek Skarlatos, Spencer Stone, and Anthony Sadler                                                                       abc7news.com
Ayoub El-Khazzani, 26, boarded a train in Amsterdam bound for Paris armed with a Kalishnikov strapped across his shoulder. It is said that he has had ties to radical Islam. El-Khazzani was in the bathroom with his Kalishnikov, when a French citizen tried to use the bathroom and was attacked. U.S. Airman Spencer Stone, National Guardsman Alek Skarlatos and their friend, Anthony Sadler, tackled El-Khazzani and disarmed him. Skarlatos said they "knew we had to do something or he was just going to kill people". President Obama called to congratulate them and they are due to meet the French President Francois Hollande. Thank God for these brave men saving this Paris-bound train.
