 Yep D'Artagnan was a real musqueteer, he was killed in action somewhere in a siege. After he was ressurected by french revolution writers he became rather a national hero during that period. So I think it is fitting here, he is a mixture of myths and reality though.

I laugh at Degaul.. I read once that he thought the Liberation of Paris was all his doing, never giving much credit to the Americans who actually liberated most of France.

Stanislaw Zolkiewski, conqueror of Moscow.

Janosik, The Polish Robin Hood, though it's still a dispute wether he was Polish or Slovakian. As a Pole I was raised to believe he was Polish.

Tadeusz Kosciuszko

Jozef Poniatowski, a Marshal of France during Napoleonic times, as well as the Military leader of the Duchy of Warsaw. If only his uncle was more like him...

Romuald Traugutt, the leader of the 1863 uprising

Ignacy Pradzynski, one of the leaders of the uprising in 1831, he was responsible for the beautiful victory at the battle of Iganiami.

Jozef Pilsudski, the man who resurrected Poland, the Victor over Soviet Russia at Radzymin.


Im sure there's more that i missed out, however those are main ones for me

oh and how could I forget! My favorite president ever!

Teddy Roosevelt-the man who made the presidency soemthing that didnt suck, for a breif time at least.

 

And while Im at it, might as well post heroes from the OTHER country my ancestors come from:

Oda Nobunaga: killed those idiotic warrior monks to the last, hence insuring the end of their dominance, and a brilliant general

 

Ieyasu: unified Japan and began the persecution that rid Japan of the plague of Jesuits, enshuring no daiymo could either rebel or use foreign religions to destabilize the country.

Ito Horobumi, responsible more than anyone for Japans rabit political and industrial modernization

Heihachiro Togo crushed the Russians in two major battles.

Gazi, unfortunately, non of your pics can be seen. Please try the upload or add image links on the right top of the posting screen...

modern day patriot!!



Michael Savage


A great patriot to the Nez Perz and a great man in our history. I have spent time in his beloved Wallowa Valley. It is one of the most beautiful places I have been to and I have traveled.

That's Pim Fortuyn (not sure I spelled correctly). A gay far-right leader who was shot when on the verge of becoming Prime-Minister of Holland.

Kara murat,fatihin fedisi and Tarkan,the lonely warrior

these are real heroes and role models
