My dad's dad trained army soldiers to go overseas to Europe.

My mom's dad was in Italy and he told me one story that they had to go through a mine field. Since he had the biggest feet they all followed him through there with no injuries.

A cousin of mine is related to Sledge from The Pacific miniseries and he never wanted to talk about it.

My grandfathers never talked about WWII.

My Dad has never spoken of Vietnam.

My little brothers don't talk about Iraq.

I don't talk about Iraq...not to my family, anyway ... other than to my little brothers and my Dad.


Just the way it is.


My biggest gripe with SPR ... is that Corporal Upham didn't fricking get what he deserved for his cowardice that got men killed...at least not on camera.
