Did anyone watch the PBS show on Medal of Honor winners yesterday? |

It was very good. Worth watching if it is shown again.

2. I watched it.....truely, profiles in courage. |

Almost to a man they seemed to agree that the real heros were the ones that never made it back. For some, the medal seemed to be a burden. We may doubt the civilian leaders who use war to further personal, political agendas...but those that are willing to make the personal sacrifice are a pretty special breed.

A good point was made that many valiant and heroic acts have been made but they weren't witnessed by anyone or the witnesses didn't live long enough to tell about it.
