"I had a pen in my pocket that I could use as a weapon, I was looking for other weapons as well and then I was coordinating with the Capitol police to try to find a way out to for us," he added.
Crow said that there was a time period where they "were surrounded and had no way out." He said the last time he felt as though he may have to fight his way out was over 15 years ago, when he was an Army Ranger in Iraq and Afghanistan.

He held an old lady's hand as she thought she was dying.
A true American hero.
