John Basilone was a hero in the war as a soldier, at home as a husband and son, in the US as a propaganda tool, and as a man in general.  This is why John Basilone was not only a war hero, but an American hero.]]> 2017-05-02 15:45:04 UTC https://padlet.com/lline/grdc3qrsjqk3/wish/169461990 https://padlet.com/lline/grdc3qrsjqk3/wish/169461999 John Basilone ended up as such an american hero for two reasons. The first reason he was so popular was because he came from nothing. This made him very relatable. And the second reason is for what he did on Guada canal. John alone with the 7th marines were able to hold the left flank mainly thanks to John's heroics during that battle. For being a hero and a human at the same time John will always be remembered for what he did. ]]> 2017-05-02 15:45:06 UTC https://padlet.com/lline/grdc3qrsjqk3/wish/169461999 https://padlet.com/lline/grdc3qrsjqk3/wish/169462002 John Basilone was an American hero because of the inspiration and grittiness he showed to not only his fellow soldiers, but the American people.
