Lets see... carried a longbow and claymore into battle when his enemy had bombs and machine guns, played the bagpipes after the Nazis had mortared his fellow soldiers into oblivion, walked out of *two* concentration camps, and still complained that the war ended too quickly? Yeah, I think he earned the title of Biggest Badass Ever.
Now I'm imagining this grizzled British soldier playing bagpipes in the middle of a corpse laden battlefield...
... I wasn't planning on going to bed anytime soon.

A hero is a hero, no matter if he's friend or foe.
That goes for Jack Churchill, Audie Murphy, Simo Häyhä, Otto Skorzeny, Michael Wittmann, Hans-Ulrich Rudel and others.
Hell, Rudel was so bad ass that the germans had to make a whole new award just for him, the Knight's Cross with Golden Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds.
You've gotta love a guy like that.
