I agree she is a hero. But it could have gone bad also.

I just read about Ssgt. Carter getting the CMH. And his battle with PTSD and now he champions that cause with other vets with PTSD.

He is a true hero.

This seems an appropriate place to post this. Here is a real hero, not only did she reveal war crimes t great personal cost, she's now revealed her true self knowing full well the ridicule she is opening herself up to.

I am in awe at the bravery of this person.

I'm less convinced that Miss Manning's actions were out of bravery but more from a desperate plea for help and attention due to a seriously bad upbringing.
