Oh wow... this is a tough topic... I don't like talking about it much or seeing it... it brings me to tears everytime. I recently saw this song on CMT (Country Music Television) and the video made me break down in tears. You really have to see the video, to get the full effect. The video shows all these soldiers whom are also fathers, and they are holding pics of their little girls, and at the end they all coming running to their fathers... it's so emotional... I encourage you to see this video, it makes me cry every time. Here are the lyrics. From the lyrics it may not seem War Hero related, but it is.

Artist/Band: Allan Gary
Song: Tough Little Boys
Album: Other Songs

Well I never once
Backed down from a punch
Well I'd take it square on the chin
Well I found out fast
A bully's just that
You've got to stand up to him
So I didn't cry when I got a black eye
As bad as it hurt, I just grinned
But when tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again.

Scared me to death
When you took your first steps
And I'd fall everytime you fell down
Your first day of school, I cried like a fool
And I followed your school bus to town
Well I didn't cry, when Old Yeller died
At least not in front of my friends
But when tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again

Well I'm a grown man
And as strong as I am
Sometimes its hard to believe
That one little girl, with little blonde curls
Could totally terrify me
If you were to ask
My wife would just laugh
She'd say "I know all about men
How when tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again"

Well I know one day, I'll give you away
And I'm gonna stand there and smile
And when I get home, and I'm all alone
Well, I'll sit in your room for a while
Well I didn't cry when Old Yeller died
At least not in front of my friends
But when tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again
When tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again.
