#3  It really is nice that his friends and even some people who just met him had such nice feelings about him. And their gesture of putting up a memorial page is lovely. It's not about his Mission in Life-- which was undoubtedly special and unique-- it's just about his Soul and how people who came in contact with it were affected by it. Perhaps he simply inspired them. Or made them feel more creative. Or somehow resonated with some special spiritual niche they had.

#2  its not clear he didnt have a public purpose - some reports have indicated he went with a real ideological goal of rebuilding Iraq. Yeah, he was an adventurer - not everyone is a disciplined uniformed military kinda person.

#1  Why enlarge Berg in death? He didn't have the public purpose of Tillman, and was a reckless adventurer who made some horrible choices.
