RE: The real heroes
In the cemetery in Belgium where General George Patton is buried, there are rows and rows of white crosses marking the graves of American soldiers who died in World War Two. What is really striking is that the crosses have the ages of the deceased on them. Most were young when they died-age 18, 19, 20. Once in awhile there is a 25 year old. When I was in the army, we had a sargent who was 25-we called him "old man." It has been pretty much the same in all wars-young men giving their very lives. They are, indeed, the heroes. They would not have thought so-but they are!
