I've been posting on this issue since I've been on steemit- before even. I've been fighting corruption in government since I got out of college in 95.
I thank you for your kind words- to me a hero is just some poor scared kid trying to get home alive. Fear propels people into doing heroic things I guess. If you meet somebody that wasn't scared out of his/her wits the whole time in combat- they weren't there!
Once again, Thank you for your service Brother!
