Outstanding young man. He could simply live the ultimate life of luxury with no pressure whatsoever. He chooses the front lines over a life of debauchery. Presented with the same choice, I wonder how many would make the same choice.
Didsdaining fortune, with his brandished steel,
Which smoked of bloody execution
Like valour's minion carved out his passage
Till he faced the slave;
Which never shook hands, nor bade farewell to him
Till he unseemed him from the nave to the chop
