Here are two examples:
If using it as a title- " Loss of a Hero; a Soldiers Story"
If using it in a sentence- The entire nation is mourning the loss of a hero.

Do you mean "the loss of a hero" or "loss of a hero"? Those would both make sense grammatically as titles. If it's for a title of a story or personal narrative, the first one sounds better. If it's for a news article or an essay, I'd pick the second. I'm not sure why it sounds better, but at least to me it does. Good luck.

Are you trying to say loss of a hero? Lost of a hero doesn't make any sense...

the loss of a hero would be best sound wise and i think grammatically as well.

LOSS of a hero

neither are good. it should be "the loss of a hero" or "loss of a hero." lost is past tense.

Neither, gramatically, you have to use "loss" instead of "lost". If substitute loss, then it's the first one.

the second one sounds better, but they really don't make too much sense, needs more context around it.
