How many of the Marines that stormed the beach at Iwo Jima were 18 years old at the time? An awful lot of them. What a change, in just two generations...

The 25 adulthood limit won't stand up for long, either. After some of the social functions I've attended lately, I think it's already nearing 50. :)

Remember how many were crying over poor little Jihad Johnny (John Lindh) because he was such a wee confused baby.
