Soldier hero

Brent Taylor, father of seven, mayor of his hometown, fourth tour in Afghanistan, is shot dead by a rogue Afghani soldier. We will hear about him for a couple of days, praising his valor and patriotism. Then we’ll quickly move on, back to the lives and escapades of media and athlete celebrities. We’ll rush out to buy the shoes and watches and other objects that they “genuinely” believe we must have.


We must always have them on our minds. But, hey, how many names of recent Medal of Honor Winners do you know?
