Forty-five years ago I often golfed with several WW1 vets, a couple of whom had been gassed in their trenches. I made sure they knew I appreciated them and their service.

Here's an interesting bit of trivia. The great character actor Walter Brennan had a very distinctive voice. Brennan got that voice from being gassed while serving in France during WW 1.
