Definitely an American hero. But speaking of war and its consequences, here was a war were most US soldiers only saw 6 months of actual battle. The first engagments with the enemy didn't take place until May of 1918 and the Armistice was signed in November of 1918. Yet in 6 months, over 116,000 US soldiers lost their lives (total). Just a little perspective for the anti-war crowd, as we've passed our 6 month point.
