This could go in H&I Fires above, but this is one you really don't want to miss. "Inspiring" doesn't even BEGIN to cover it...
The "Someones" are an entire family--two sons (one fallen), a 60-year-old father inspired by his son(s), and a mother-wife with devotion, perspective and courage that should be an example to us all. CDR Salamander writes:
How do you define sacrifice? How do you respond to loss? How do you focus pride, grief, love and honor? Do you try to take positive action in the face of a horror you never expected to face? Can you go beyond the emotional and tap into the intellectual? ...I ask you to step back , absorb, and most of all - be humble.
Be sure to see comments at Salamander's link for the story of the surviving brother.
We've had other stories of courageous response to loss similar to this one... but the response of this entire family is in a league of its own. You will not be sorry for clicking through.
