"I didn't even think. I just grabbed as many kids as I could and ran five stores down to the exit," he said. "We got there and ran into a whole batch of police pointing their guns at us. I wasn't focused on myself, and I wasn't focused on my surroundings ... I was just focused on those kids." In an interview with local television station KTSM outside the Cielo Vista Mall, Oakley was clearly shaken, the adrenaline pumping through his system. And when reached by Task & Purpose on Saturday, he said said that, despite his training, he was "scared for my life." "I heard four kids died," he said, his voice softening. "I wish I could have gotten more kids out of there. I wish those guys who ran would have stayed ... I just think, what if that was my child? How would I want some other man to react?" A pause: "I wish they had some sense of service." #blackmensmile #glendonoakley #elpaso #blackmen https://www.instagram.com/p/B0zfZF2ggqt/?igshid=q3v3clpi18nn

#Repost @killermike ・・・ I want to send love and respect to Glendon Oakley (@oakley.96) a U.S. soldier, who carried several children to safety following the shooting in El Paso earlier this week. Oakley is the antithesis of the domestic terrorists who stalk our communities. We should make sure he, and others like him, receives the support necessary to help them heal and recover. No one, not even people in the military, should have to fight terror abroad and terror at home. #RealLifeBlackPanther #GlendonOakley #notallheroswearcapes https://www.instagram.com/p/B037lK3HoIi/?igshid=us18nciy8cjb

#Repost @theshaderoom ・・・ TSR STAFF: Jade Ashley @Jade_Ashley94 _____________________________________ As many of you know, there were, unfortunately, two mass shootings that took place over the weekend. The first shooting took place at a Walmart in El Paso, TX at the Cielo Vista Mall. While many continue to mourn the loss of the lives that were taken too soon. #GlendonOakley, an off-duty Army serviceman is also being celebrated for his heroism as he helped to save the lives of children at the mall. _____________________________________ According to @abcnews, on Sunday, Glendon talked about his selfless act and said, “What I did was exactly what I was supposed to do. I understand it was heroic and I'm looked at as a hero for it, but that wasn't the reason for me. I'm just focused on the kids that I could not [save] and the families. It hurts me. I feel like they were a part of me. I don't even know the people that died or the kids that I took with me.” _____________________________________ On Saturday, Glendon was shopping at the mall when a child notified him that there was an active shooter. Once he became fully aware of what was going on, he quickly went into action to help save all of the children he could.

Soldier hailed as hero during shooting: It's 'the worst thing I've ever been through'

Glendon Oakley says he doesn't want the world to focus on him.

Off-duty Army Soldier Glendon Oakley is a hero, saving children from the vile animal in El Paso who murdered 20 innocent people yesterday. Please reblog to spread recognition of his noble deeds.

Thank the Most High for protecting #glendonoakley and those kids. An innocent brotha got killed earlier this year and he had a license to carry but the cops thought he was the shooter. It’s difficult spot to be in, risk your life to be a hero and get shot by a cop or risk your life to be a hero and get shot by an active shooter. | #Repost @realnegus804 ・・・#hero #realhero (at El Paso, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0w4mpwg2xJ/?igshid=xe7ew1s0871h
