Not a military figure but some individuals should be recognised for their contributions to society. I am not a religious person but The Samaritans is the one organisation that I have had the greatest admiration for. From its religious roots it has expanded and now reaches out to help any and everyone who needs a hand. And in this fractured society of ours, its most important contribution is to provide a listening ear. For that fact alone, I would like to remember Reverend Chad Varah http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?view=DETAILS&grid=&xml=/news/2007/11/09/db0904.xml
