In WWII my dad was trained in 1942 then deployed for the duration. He got home in 1946.
No one ever bitched about it. and now we know them as our "greatest generation".

Most soldiers aren't bitching about it. The media picks up on the few who do and runs with it.

Ping!! My dad also served in WWII - 1942 to 1946. He was away from home for over FOUR years. During that time he was deployed to Tinian as part of the 509th Composite Air Group.
