Sally Becker saved hundreds of lives in Bosnia and Kosovo during the 1990′s and was chosen as one of the 8 people to carry the Olympic flag during last Friday’s opening ceremony at the London Olympics.
“I’ve been waiting for someone to tap me on the shoulder and say ‘this is a big mistake,’” she told The Algemeiner.
“We carried the flag up to Mohammad Ali, and he was holding the flag with us. As they played the Olympic anthem, I said a little silent prayer for the athletes who died in Munich.”
