WHAT BECOMES a HERO MOST Uigi Marciante, Jr PRICELESS ISSUE NO. 54 OCT/NOV 07 published by Joe Renna for the Sons of Peterstown Sports Club WHAT BECOMES A HERO MOST uigi Marciante, Jr. became a hero the second he decided to enlist in the army. LAmerica was in the throes of war when he volunteered. There was no question as to the risk he was taking but his sense of duty outweighed his options in civilian life. Marciante died Sept. 20, 2007 in Muqdadiyah, Iraq, of wounds sustained when an improvised explosive device detonated near his vehicle. Recently the term "Hero" has been over used at the risk of diluting its meaning. If criteria needs to be established in order to identify those who are worthy of the label they should start with people who sacrifice their own lives to save others. Just as a firefighter running into a burning building to rescue someone is a hero, so is the United States service men and women. The world is on fire and American soldiers are running in. This is not like wars of past generations when forty airplanes, in tight formation, would drop 500 to 1,000 saturation bombs on a single target. America's mission is save lives not take them. The intent of Muslim Jihad Extremists is to bring death and destruction to the civilized world. America has taken on the task of quelling their aggression. The implement of war in this case is the soldier. The concern for the preservation of innocent life overrides the mission to destroy. This tactic puts the soldiers at extreme risk. It is a difficult conscience decision (above) Louie with his wife Stephanie and their son but the most civilized. Some critics say our military action is too restricting and Lorenzo a week before his return to Iraq in September. would like to see America use its full destruction capabilities. But that would be like crushing the burning house and everyone in it to squelch the fire. The dangers our soldiers face in Iraq is unimaginable to civilians who are secure in the comfort of their lives. There must always be a constant high level of awareness and willingness to take action. The threat of the enemies plan to kill military and civilians alike is constant. Walking away is not an option for the Jihadists pursuit to destroy would not relent. The toll this war has taken on American lives is devastating. The loss felt by the Peterstown community over the death of Luigi Marciante, or Louie as he was commonly called, will never go away. Family and friends can only search for meaning and never find the proper justification for the sacrifice Louie has made. It is impossible to measure the potential for lost lives had America not gone to war. It is equally impossible to know if any terrorist attacks would have been made again on American soil. It has been, and certainly still is, the proclaimed mission of the enemy. Each soldier is an equal defense to that threat. They are all heroes. They all face the same risk that Louie did and they all accept it as part of their duty to their country. This acceptance is enough to be deemed a hero. Though Peterstown is just a small neighborhood in Elizabeth, NJ it represents thousands of neighborhoods across the country that lost a loved one. There will be an end to the war one day but not before other brave sons and daughters make the ultimate sacrifice. The void left in the hearts of everyone who knew Louie can never be filled. They must hold onto his memory and make sure he is never forgotten. Louie's wife Stephanie remembers him, in her words, ."my best friend, my husband. A devoted father to his newborn son, Lorenzo. He was a son and brother to be proud of. He loved life, and made the best out of even the worse. His presence could brighten up any room. He was always there when I needed him most. He did everything he could to always keep a smile on my face. He was so proud to be a daddy. He always talked about all the things he had planned to do with his son, and teach him."

Since both sets of people are foreign they tend to get lumped together. Its degrading to the legitimate immigrant wanting to be an American. There is criteria that one must follow to become a naturalized citizen of the United States. Adhering to these guidelines almost ensures that the immigrant will become a productive member of society. People entering the country illegally has reeked havoc on many aspects of our lives and causes the problems which over shadow the benefits of lawful immigration. The general requirements for administrative naturalization include: a period of continuous residence and physical presence in the United States; an ability to read, write, and speak English; a knowledge and understanding of U.S. history and government; good moral character; attachment to the principles of the U.S. Constitution; and favorable disposition toward the United States. These are high standards, indeed. Impossible in some eyes. In reality there are provisions and exceptions that make the transition more easily attainable.

Department of the Interior, Bureau of Education, Washington. Sir: Many students apply for admission to higher institutions in other States and sections than those in which they have received their high-school preparation. Many also seek certificates from ex¬ amining and licensing boards, which have no direct means of know¬ ing the standards of the schools from which the applicants come. The demand for this information led the Bureau of Education, first in the spring of 1913 and again in the autumn of 1914, to undertake the collection and preparation of lists of high schools and academies accredited by State universities, approved by State departments of education, or recognized by examining and certifying boards and by certain other agencies. The demand proved to be even greater than had been anticipated. The first edition of the bulletin was soon exhausted. There have be^n many requests from college and uni¬ versity officers for copies of the second edition. Moreover, changes are made in these lists of accredited schools from year to year.
