Note: while I do honestly respect Pat Tillman for the sacrifice that he made, giving up a lucrative football career to fight and die for his country, does that really place him among the 100 Greatest Americans ever?

Now, I can see a decent reason for including Pat Tillman; in being the uncommon man turned common soldier it could be said that he exemplifies the popular image of the American GI.
But- there are so many more heroic "common soldiers" in America's past.
