FOUR MEN RECEIVE FRANCE'S TOP HONOR [Legion d'Honeur] FOR THWARTING TRAIN ATTACK

THREE AMERICANS, BRITON RECEIVE FRANCE'S TOP HONOR FOR THWARTING TRAIN ATTACK The four men tackled a man wielding an automatic rifle on a high-speed train to Paris carrying over 500 passengers. French President Francois Hollande said, "Since Friday, the entire world admires your courage, your sangfroid, your spirit of solidarity. This is what allowed you to with bare hands -- your bare hands -- subdue an armed man. This must be an example for all, and a source of inspiration." And here's what sets these "extreme heroes" apart from the rest of us. [AP]
