Post #2 Bravery

What do I think makes a person brave? I feel that someone is extraordinarily brave when they do things, not for themselves, but for someone else even in the face of danger. If someone were to risk their life just to help or keep someone else safe, I would consider them brave. In the book To Kill A Mockingbird I personally find Atticus to be the most brave. Not only did he save the neighborhood from a risky dog that was coming down their street, straight for them, but he is risking his reputation to defend a black man everywhere he goes. He is a single parent of two and faces every situation head on. He is willing to do anything to protect his honor with God and would never do anything to go against him.
In real life, I know a man. He is my boyfriends dad in fact. Right now, at this moment he is deployed in the army. He has three kids and loves them all. Along with his three kids he left behind a loving wife. He is in Korea protecting our country. Without going further in depth he is protecting our country from missile attacks that if he did not do his job one day the world as we know it would cease to exist. At home he is a caring father, good friend and a loving husband that would lay down his life for what he so strongly believes in. I find this man to be extreamly brave for everything he would do with/ for his country.
