Easy . . . someone soldier-y. Alvin York, Audie Murphy, or George S. Patton.
No fictional soldiers like Rambo or whoever Chuck Norris played in those Missing in Action movies, because their buddies either A. died or B. were captured and then died following an almost-rescue.

I will blog further about this later. But here is my answer: a person from the past? Audie Murphy (WWII hero who saved the lives of many of his fellow soldiers). A person from the present? My friend Vince Cahill (Iraq and Afghanistan hero) or my cousin Brittany Ritchie (Iraq hero). All 3 of these people are battle-tested and have served honorably. More later after I collect my thoughts.

My choice would be Nick Hallaway, the lead character in my favorite book, Memoirs of an Invisible Man by H.F. Saint (1987).

it would be my cousin – Nanay Lay, she’s a very tactful person in any kind of obstacles. But in case of a fictional character, I would choose Edward Cullen if he will treat me as his Bella because I know he could protect me from any harm, and he’s way too sexy to be with in a fox hole 😀

I would choose to share a foxhole with Hillary Clinton. I think that most Jews would agree that the whole world would rise up to save her. Good luck Israel!
