I think that all of our men and women who sacrifice their lives in the armed forces have done us a service. It always disturbed me that certain people get more "credit" for certain actions than others. Sure, Tillman walked away from several million dollars to join the Army, but is that really any different than walking away from a newborn son or daughter, or a sick parent? We may make much of his story because many people can put a face to his name, but I don't think his actions were any more "heroic" than those of any soldier who paid the ultimate price for his country.
