Thanks but understand it is an entirely different matter when you have you sights set on another human beings face and you have your finger on the trigger and knowing full well that all you have to do is pull that trigger and you take that life in the blink of an eye. Then having to actually look at the corpse that may or may not have a face or even a head on the torso or may have been disemboweled will determine whether you are cut out for combat.
Like the old saying, war ain't pretty. I know. Even after 40 years I still live with the horror and nightmares almost daily even to this day. You never forget. But if called on I will gladly put my life on the line once again for my fellow American freedom loving patriotic American. I have no disillusions about the savages of war and you shouldn't either. I wouldn't like it but hey it is what it is.
Ron I have fought and killed both communists and terrorists and have been living with it for the last forty years. But if my country can send me half way around the world to kill people that never done anything to me personally then I will have no problem at all fighting people that try to destroy my country on our own soil. There are so many people out there that want to destroy the USA, domesticc and foriegn, that it is inevitable.
