Heroes: Larry LaSalle

There is a mystery surrounding his departure from New York and his relocation to Frenchtown: "We knew little about him, however, and he discouraged questions"
Larry LaSalle is considered a hero before the war, to the children, and to everyone else for receiving a Silver Star: "He was our champion"
He shows no remorse for raping Nicole "He was at the door... whistling a tune"
He was intimidating due to his status & he abused his power: "But Larry LaSalle told me to go"
He tries to prevent Francis from killing him & reassures him that he is still a hero and ends up killing himself instead of allowing Francis doing, thus making sure Francis didn't have any burning guilt to worry about in the future: "You couldn't have stopped me anyway, Francis. You were just a child"
1. But the question is - did he kill himself so he could die with dignity? Or did he die because he couldn't bear being crippled for the rest of his life?
Even towards the end, he doesn't show any guilt for raping "the sweet young things"
Larry supports Francis during the table tennis competition and allows him to win instead of humiliating him: "You made it possible. You let me win"
He shows physical attributes that heroes hold: "...his dazzling smile"
He wants to be looked at like he is a hero again: "If I could have one thing, it would be that you look at me the way you did at the Wreck Centre. When I was your hero"
