Default Re: OT - Tribute to a hero

For those of you that may have misunderstood:

What I posted below may sound like some poem I found or made up. IT IS NOT! This is the pain that I live with every day of my life; these are things that creep into my mind no matter how hard I try to drive them out.

Tillman is a hero! So are all the others in our armed forces. They are heroes because they chose to join. He didn’t go over to die, he went to serve. Damn the Webster definition of a hero. If you save a baby in a burning car does that make you a hero? If you help a trapped man after a storm does that make you a hero? Yes it does and why? Because you chose to help and he [Tillman] is a hero, along with all the other men and woman of the armed forces, because he choose to serve!
