Hero

A soldier, Lance Corporal Kyle Smith, has been awarded the Conspicuous Gallantry Cross. He saved two wounded comrades of his out of danger. They were lying in the open, wounded and not able to get back into safety. Corporal Smith ran the hundred yards towards towards his friends twice, and he administered first aid. This was extremely brave of him, seeing that he even considered to take some team mates with him, but deciding not to because they could get hurt as well. He did it all on his own, which is truly a act of bravery.


Own opinion:

I find this man a true hero. And I can only hope that I ever grow to be as brave as him. And if I ever am in a situation like his two fallen comrades, I can only hope that I have a friend in the area that is as brave as Lance Corporal Kyle Smith. It is really hard to imagine the situation, because it is so distant from me. I have no family that is or ever has been in the army, so I can not imagine what I would do if one of my friends was wounded. Kyle Smith is a really brave man, that can't be
awarded enough in my eyes.
