** Hiro may be a bonafide OneManArmy leading a BadassCrew of Ultra Fighters, but his general youthfulness often translates to brashness and recklessness, at least in the PR game. When he finds out that there are {{Shell Shocked Veteran}}s in the lower ranks and services, to say that he's outright incensed at their mistreatment (especially by the general public) would be an {{understatement}}, and after coming home from a particularly successful mission, Hiro goes on to [[ShamingTheMob calling out every citizen out there]], screaming at them for how they treated the {{Shell Shocked Veteran}}s, [[Film/FirstBlood with all those maggots at the airport, protesting them, spitting; calling them "baby killer" and all kinds of vile crap]]. He's promptly dragged off by one of his team members, TheBigGuy Billy, and this argument ensues:
--> '''Billy''': {{What The Hell H|ero}}iro!? Couldn't you at least ''not'' mouth the off about ''classified information''!? I know that those poor chumps who had to go through the most horrific atrocities out there are having to live with those nightmares ''and'' being spat on; I feel just as sorry about them as you do! I get your point, but ''that'' out there was not the way to go about it!
--> '''Hiro''': At least it's better to tell these ungrateful scumbags the AwfulTruth! I don't care about what every last one of you would think about me spilling the truth, honesty is something I live for, damn it!
--> '''Billy''': '''[[Film/AFewGoodMen THEY CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!]]''' Hiro, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns.
--> '''Hiro''': Unlike you and the rest of the military, I've got the time ''and'' inclination to explain ourselves to the people who rise and sleep under the blanket of the very freedom we provide, and then ''question'' the manner in which we provide it! They ''need'' to know the truth, regardless if they can handle it or not! And who else is gonna tell them? You? CommunicationsOfficer Bob? We use words like 'Honor,' 'Code,' 'Loyalty!' We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. And those {{Ungrateful Bastard}}s use them as a punchline!
--> '''Billy''': Well, we would rather have them tell us "Thank you" and went on your way. Do you think the general public would ''love'' being bashed over the head with their own awful truths!? No, they wouldn't! They'd rather be all be ignorant and blissful of our misery, and we can't just keep telling these people to ''not'' disrespect our lower ranked soldiers, as much as it pains me to say it!
--> '''Hiro''': Well how about they pick up a weapon, ''and stand at post''? Either way, I don't give a ''damn'' what they think they're entitled to!
