Engaging in warfare is one of the ugliest and most cruel things humans can do to one another. Even in the darkest days of armed conflict, however, some people rise to the challenge of the time and prove their heroism and fortitude.

They're often those who carry weapons into battle, but they're also the medics, nurses, and surgeons who work tirelessly to keep their comrades alive. Some even make the ultimate sacrifice, so it's worth looking back at those who demonstrated in one way or another the heroism of which people are capable in the darkest hours.
