Unsung Heroes.

[CHAPEL END CHARLIE]

Some people who make a profound impact on the life's of others are recognized for their achievements and celebrated, while others however - just as deserving perhaps - soon sink back into the historical obscurity they came from. I'd argue that one of those who fall into the latter category is Malcolm Purcell McLean. Now I could explain why I think this one time petrol pump attendant and lorry driver became so very important a figure in the lives of countless millions of Human Beings everywhere, but being a lazy so-and-so I'll let someone more articulate and educated than I am do it for me.

 

 

 

 

Please feel free to make a case for your own 'unsung hero', be they world changing revolutionaries like McLean or just someone who came along to change your personal world for the better.
