She stared death in the face, got hit by three bullets and took down a bloodthirsty gunman – saving countless lives.

Still, Sgt. Kim Munley would never want to be seen as a hero.

“She’s going to get a good laugh out of all the hero talk,” her husband, Staff Sgt. Matthew Munley, told relatives at the Metroplex Hospital where the diminutive dynamo is recovering.

The proud hubby, a soldier recently transferred from Fort Hood to Fort Bragg, N.C., came to visit his courageous wife yesterday for the first time since she was wounded in the bloodbath at the Army base in Texas.

Kim Munley, a civilian police officer, was shot in both legs and a wrist.

“I’m here to see my wife,” Matthew Munley told nurses as he entered the hospital’s fourth-floor intensive care unit while sporting a Philadelphia Phillies sweatshirt.

    If uou would, please keep us informed if the brave woman is chastized by anyone in the media for her act of bravery. I will make it a top priority to extradite that person from the human race.

    Chuck Yeager received a (deserved) civilian version of the Congressional Medal of Honor.

    This Officer’s actions surely deserve no less!!!
