Hero: a hero is someone that will protect someone else and someone who is brave.

I think it is important to have a hero because he or she can be someone that you can look up to and aspire to be like when you get older.

My hero is my grandpa. He is my hero because he has always been there for me and my family when we need him. Also because right after high school he went into the air force. After he was out of the air force he became a firefighter. These are just some of the reasons that I think that my grandpa is a hero.

I think that my grandpa should be inducted into the hall of fame because he has done a lot of successful things in his life. First right out of high school he went into the air force. He said he joined the air force because he wanted to do his part and protect his country. After he was out of the air force he became a firefighter. He was a firefighter for 5 years.
