Absolutely. My grandfather seldom spoke of the war. He didn't fight because he wanted to be a hero or for medals, he fought because it was the right thing to do.

Even my young son who is from a long line of vets.....his grandfather served in World War I......makes no mention at all of his four years in the service.

The tradition continues among those who revere their country!

Which explains Kerry's willingness to exploit his four months...of disservice.
