Some died while fighting for the Order, some were maimed and lost loved ones to the battles they fought. No one however, sacrificed more for the cause than Frank and Alice Longbottom. They were instrumental in the defeat of Voldemort the first time, and were a symbol to all those fighting with the second Order. Though they gave everything they had in the first wizarding war, it wasn't until after that they truly became heroes.

Tortured with the Cruciatus Curse by Bellatrix Lestrange and some of her fellow Death Eaters, Frank and Alice gave up no information at all, surrendering their sanity in the process. Though they weren’t killed, their fate was arguably worse as they were resigned to live at St. Mungos for the rest of their days, robbed of the experience of bringing up Neville.

However, their bravery, courage, and loyalty to the Order and the safety of the wizarding world was something that the second generation of the group could take inspiration from. Particularly Neville, without whom the Dark Lord would have prevailed.
