A nice quote phantom, and that might put Faramir over Eomer, but I still stick with Gimli being the better of them. I mean killing 42 orcs at Helm's Deep isn't a number to shrug off, also, it was worthy for the recognition of Gamling, Eomer, and Aragorn himself.
Quote:
When all were safe within, Eomer turned: "I thankyou, Gimli son of Gloin!" he said. "I did not know that you were with us in the sortie. but oft the unbidden guest proves the best company."

Quote:
We must stop this rat-hole," said Gamling. "Dwarves are said to be cunning folk with stone. Lend us your aid, master!"

Quote:
"If he wins back to the caves, he will pass your count again," laughed Aragorn. "Never did I see an axe so wielded."

To me this puts him above Faramir, and right next to Boromir. (according to the time we are dealing with).
