Not to detract from Riley Howell, simply to point out.
His courage is driven by his love for his friends.
A selfless act of love.
“The life of the dead is placed on the memories of the living. The love you gave in life keeps people alive beyond their time. Anyone who was given love will always live on in another’s heart.” Marcus Tullius Cicero
Nope...that was my way of saying "exceptional courage". Kinda like the quote by the General/Admiral after one of the Pacific Island victories of the Marines during WWII.In summing up the battle he said that for his Marines "exceptional courage was a common commodity".
