[quote=Anonymous]I watched him struggling with the fact that we tend to use the label "hero" to cover up the tragedy of people dying in wars of questionable necessity. In most cases, soldiers die not because they are more heroic than their comrades, but because they are less lucky. He clearly said that there are genuine heroes among the fallen, but he is concerned with the thoughtless use of the term "hero" to help us avoid the painful questions that war raises. I think the real shame here is that a commentator has to apologize for trying to bring serious thought to one of the most important issues of public life/[/quote]
