You presented a fine example and I now admire that lady too.
Hope you do not mind but I'd like to present mine.
I have over a dozen but the top eight are:

1. MY FATHER

2. MY NATIVE AMERICAN GRANDFATHER

3/4. My two friends Don and Herschel (both now departed), both decorated war veterans that also taught me that a man is nothing(not even a man) if he will not fight for something!!! I would have stood with those two men and fought a damn hundred men ! I will not rate one over the other because to me that would be dishonoring one of them. Something Id die rather than do!

5. A TRUE PATRIOT, WARRIOR AND LEADER, CHESTY PULLER

6. ROBERT E. LEE, I was given the name Robert after him....

7. Tecumseh

8. Alexander the Great

My maternal grandparents and great aunt.
My parents

In all actuality, my maternal grandfather was and still is (even though he has long since passed) my role model. He was the best and coolest man I have ever known to this day. He (and my grandmother) raised me half my life. And he was smart. That dude got more work out of me just because I wanted to be with him than anyone else ever has. :laugh:

Jack Lambert's next on the list. :wicked99:

My Dad. Passed in 1982 while I was oversea's on a deployment. We were headed home early in December, before Christmas. Odd thing was. As a radioman on watch. I happened to be the person who tore the RED CROSS message off of the printer at the time.

I didn't get to read the message as the Supervisor of the Watch did his job, and quietly took it to the Executive Officer without saying anything to me at the time.

Within minutes. The X.O. called radio, and told my supervisor to send me up to his stateroom. It was early in the morning, just before the end of my watch at 0700.

I learned my Dad had passed, but it would take more than a week before we got to our home port, and I went back to Pennsylvania for the funeral. He was my role model because DAD'S are the most important man in everyone's life. Without question.
