Heroes of the Battlefield


Heroes of the Battlefield

          “A hero is someone who has given his or her life to something bigger than oneself.” – Joseph Campbell
          The Fallen 44, 44 men who fought with their own bravery, courage and strength. They sacrificed their own lives for the sake of many people. Some may think that it is an absurd idea to die like that but for me, it is a great choice and that thing proved that they are truly heroes.
          They do not want fame for what they did and at the same time, they also proved that anyone can be a hero of his own kind. They became heroes of their own stories and became an inspiration for many people specially their loved ones to keep moving on. 
          I believe that they truly deserve to be recognized as heroes. Heroes are not just determined by the amount of sacrifice and their strengths but it is what is inside a person. I salute each and every one of the Fallen 44. They have this strength to carry on fighting even though they knew that one of the consequences is to never see their families again. It is also because they fought for the benefit of our own country not minding of what it can brought about in their own lives.

          Because of what they did, I can now call them, the Heroes of the Battlefield.
