I believe honor is a way that one conducts them self through out a life time. Honor is doing little things in your life that benefit others or a cause much larger than yourself. I don't believe that most people who are honorable would run around stating they have honor all the time. To me that is part of having honor you do the things you do not for recognition but simply to do that right thing. I guess in my eyes an honorable person follows a strict set of believes, doesn't "sell out" their values and beliefs in fact they fight diligently for them, they are modest and do so not for recognition but because their conscious and character demands this of them.

Hope that made sense
