James Bradley: "[last] I finally came to the conclusion that He, maybe, He was right. Maybe there's no such thing as heroes; Maybe there are just people like my dad. I finally came to understand why they were so uncomfortable being called 'heroes'. Heroes are something we create; something we need. It's a way for us to understand what's almost incomprehensible, how people could sacrifice so much for us,"
[⋯]: "⋯but for my dad and these men: the risks they took; the wounds they suffered - they did that for their buddies. They may have fought for their country but they died for their friends. For the man in front, for the man beside him, and if we wish to truly honor these men we should remember them the way they really were, the way my dad remembered them."
