Forgotten Legacy (HDR)

2008.08.26

I am not sure who this person is. I didn't read the caption on his monument. I am unsure whether many do. Even if this was a great man, is he any better than all of those unsung heroes? The ones who decide usually have the money and the power.

StevenJ I LOVE social commentary :)
I of course do not think he is better than the unsung heroes - but naturally, someone has to get the credit for being in a leadership role. Many of us, to include me, would rather not be in a high visibility position - and would rather do the grunt work that needs to be done, even if - at the end - would mean propping up a person who had little or possibly nothing to do with the achievement :) Therefore, my conclusion is the propped up figure usually represents the movement of all involved rather than a lone brave soul (which - I guess - rarely could be wrong :)
B.T.W - the man is Philip Sheridan - not that the i.d. has anything to do with your query nor with my statement
