It makes me so sad that they are leaving us. I saw a PBS program about the WWII hero’s from South Carolina last week and I mist up every time I see them talk about the war. They are still overwhelmed by the loss of some of their buddies.

They are my hero’s. They really are.

Indeed. REAL heroes never beat their chests in public. That’s what instinctively put me off about John Kerry.

I really do wish they had a better pop-culture monument than John Woo’s “Windtalkers” 2002 movie. Damn good actors (Nicholas Cage, Adam Beach, Peter Stomare, Christian Slater, etc.), but they were hobbled with a script that was more redolent with hoary WWII movie cliches than anything the Duke put out back in the day.

I’m sure there are straightforward memoirs by the participants that would have made for better material.

Grammar and spelling teacher's have my permission to take all Sunday's off. Yes, I did that on purpose.
