I guess it really depends on what your definition of hero is and how they died in the first place. I guess one could argue anybody fighting in a war is a hero to some extent so how they died doesn't really matter as they were heroes anyway. On the other hand should a hero be somebody who does something exceptional or selfless that sets them apart?
What is a heroic death?
A soldier who throws himself on a live grenade (cliche I know) to save a groups of children waiting for the bus?
A soldier cleaning his weapon accidentally discharges a bullet in the chamber shooting himself in the temple?
A soldier who was shot in the line duty in an active war zone doing his daily patrol?
I don't know. Its an interesting question to think about. I'll have to get back to the discussion later on this one.
