Having served in active combat I can tell you unquestionably that this is totally wrong and your entire perspective is, in my opinion selfish and looking for validation - you seem to encourage or at least silver lining the fear response of "flight."
Fear is an emotional response to a threat - You have no choice in fear, it is simply a response.
Courage is reacting to the fear to protect others above yourself - this is as simple as admitting you are wrong and as extreme as lunging onto a grenade.
Cowardice is reacting to the fear by protecting yourself first above others - this is as simple as ignoring someone who is hurt to actively harming others in preemptive violence.
