The doctors, nurses and medical professionals on the front lines, heroes.

First Responders, law enforcement, heroes.

Teachers and all educators, heroes.

All the children who had to miss the last weeks of school to flatten the curve, heroes.

The high school seniors who may not have graduation, (even though they've probably had a half dozen since Pre-k) heroes.  

Essential workers for carrying on, heroes.

Non essential workers for giving up their jobs and paychecks to flatten the curve, heroes.

Truck drivers who continue to carry the freight, heroes.

Farmers and ranchers who continue to work to put food on the table, heroes. 

Food service industry and grocery store employees, heroes.

Steely spined politicians for, well for whatever they do, heroes.

We could say that we're all heroes now or we could say we're all Americans doing whatever we can to get through this crises the best we know how. That's what Americans do.
