We need to be careful about whom we present it to. His description of the word "hero" and his "Homeric" phrase of those who have received it remind me of stories like those of Leonidas and Cincinnatus. To get it, I know a soldier can't be following orders and excels above and beyond what is expected of him or her. This is a great reminder of who we are as a nation and why we're careful in many circle of whom we call hero. You're right. It IS powerful and I want to see more from this writer. Thank you for sharing it. I agreed with your opinion that too few have been awarded, but, after reading this. find myself believing as he does about its unique distinction.
