My father was in WWII (North Africa): he never said a word about his experience.
My brother-in-law was in Vietnam: he also never said a word about his experience.

I don't question their reticence; I respect it.

"He said he pretended to be dead until they all went away," she told WHAS-TV. "He said, ‘And then I inched slowly across other bodies and I went across this one guy and his lips were moving and I got up close to him and he was saying the Lord's Prayer." he said. laid with him and stayed with him and prayed with him until he died.'"

This man was living through the worst of the Hell that is war and had the time to give comfort to a brother that was praying out his last breath.

That is true courage.
