I have been following Senior Airman Brian Kolfage by means of his Facebook Page.....as his is very much an awe inspiring story as well. He was wounded by a nearly direct hit of a 107mm Rocket and has not only survived but continues to live a wonderful life. He too married a wonderful Woman who has been his "Rock", is out of the Air Force and is in University doing a degree in Architecture.
These stories of indomitable courage and achievement abound and remind us of what true courage and spirit is all about.
What so strongly impresses me is not what Brian has done for "himself"....but what he is doing for others. That makes him a real life "Hero" in my estimation.
