143 Hero

My definition of hero is someone who puts his/her life at risk to save or benefit someone else. The head of household at this address just returned from a year in Iraq. He was welcomed home with a spray painted flag on the lawn. I'm glad he came home safely. I hope he gets to stay home. He meets my definition of hero since just being in Iraq is putting life at risk.
