20. Lt. Col. Anthony Herbert, Vietnam War
A career soldier who was willing to throw away his lifetime of military service by blowing the whistle on American war crimes in Vietnam.

My definition of a "war hero" is someone willing to transcend self-interest to preserve the lives of his fellow military in harms' way and/or the honor and integrity of what they represent.
