Heroes of War Who Aren’t Famous for Fighting

When we think of heroes, particularly heroes of war, we often imagine a macho soldier clad in camo with honors bestowed on him for his heroics, a bullet belt over his shoulder, and a nice, Hollywood battle scar to show he took a bullet for a friend. In an ideal world, these types of warriors wouldn’t be necessary.But the unfortunate truth is war happens, and to win wars, you need more than battle-hardened soldiers. You need strategists and leaders who inspire; you need logistics and a medical team that can pull you through the worst type of injuries with nothing but a jolt of morphine and a few bandages. Some heroes of war are heroes without ever seeing the front lines.
