What are some modern non-American war-heroes? I mean NATO has been at war in the Middle-East for almost 2 decades now. Surely Americans aren't the only ones kicking ass?
Pic related. Joshua Leakey (VC). He was awarded the VC for pretty much relieving 2 machine gun positions from being overrun, when a USMC captain was wounded. He took command of the situation as a LCpl, and managed to beat the enemy back.

Well I'm actually Canadian, but all we seem do do is recycle WW1 stuff...
Can you be a hero if your "cause" is rather pointless?
Afghanistan or the middle east didnat became better place in general unfortunately.

You don't become a hero by shooting goat herders for money.
