I can’t help but wonder about how they would view the stresses on the families during WWII? Some of those wives at home got a piece of mail once a month. We’re so spoiled.

Not only that, but I’d wager that the stress is compounded exponentially by the baloney that gets played out in the enemedia and by the Congress every day. Ugh!

Right after my daughter started flying into and out of Iraq (and Afghanistan as well), she sent me an email with a picture of part of her aircraft and said "See the bullet holes? Somebody took some potshots at us this morning. Don't tell mom."

I have friends who have children serving over there, and they'll be chatting with them (including video chatting) and they'll hear something and their kid will say "something happened, I've gotta run, see ya" as they are picking up a rifle.

The whole thing is very surreal at times (we should have had a clue when the White House allowed reporters to be "embedded" on a large scale during the invasion in 2003).

I’ve often wondered about the WWII Vets and their families. This is one reason they are called “The Greatest Generation”.

But every generation of Vets is “The Greatest” just for protecting the freedoms of us and ones they don’t even know, all over this World.
