What makes St. George special?

The story of St. George and the dragon is a myth but may be based in some grain of truth. Since we know that dragons do not exist he could not have killed one. However, the true story of St. George is even more fantastic.George was a soldier, an important soldier, in the Roman Army and held in high esteem by the emperor. In the year AD 302, Diocletian issued an edict that every Christian soldier in the army should be arrested and every other soldier should offer a sacrifice to the Roman gods of the time. However, George objected and with the courage of his faith approached the Emperor and ruler. Diocletian was upset, not wanting to lose his best tribune and the son of his best official, Gerontius. George loudly renounced the Emperor's edict, and in front of his fellow soldiers and Tribunes he claimed himself to be a Christian and declared his worship of Jesus Christ. Diocletian attempted to convert George, even offering gifts of land, money and slaves if he made a sacrifice to the Roman gods. The Emperor made many offers, but George never accepted. The emperor then had George tortured and beheaded.
