Does meet ; according to the Any Biography section in  a person can be consider notable if that person has received a notable award or honor. I can think of no higher award than the Purple Heart. Furthermore, I am shocked that under  it talks about being notable if you are a pornographic actor or a criminal but says nothing about veterans and especially those who received Purple Hearts. There is a difference between being notable and being famous. I think the  should definitely be used for notability and not be confused with infamy. A Purple Heart recipient is definitely notable. They might not be famous to most people alive today, but they were famous in the small towns across America that they returned to after the War. I think more people would be interested in researching Purple Heart recipients and how they were wounded in battle rather than Porn Stars and their performances. There were approximately 200,000 http://www.purplehearts.net/id6.html Purple Hearts awarded during WWII compared to the 13,104,355 http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_many_Americans_fought_in_World_War_2 total number of soldiers that fought in WWII. With those numbers I would consider the Purple Heart medal very hard to obtain. I would like to make a larger plea to the Wikipedians out there to make Purple Heart recipients just as notable as porn stars and criminals. Special:Contributions/208.176.248.6|208.176.248.6
