Your dad did himself (and the Marines) proud. Don't worry about the temperment of today's combat arms troops. There would be NO HESITATION. All it takes is for one civilian to look a little out of place while on a combat patrol, and those civilians will be either face down in the dirt for a search or just down for a dirt nap. We would occasionally get lax patrolling in Europe, but NEVER in the middle east.
