Whistler<BR><BR>Would it make you feel any better if I told you again that you should be ashamed of yourself and have no right to live<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif"border=0><BR><BR>BTW, I agree with you about understanding what the Vets went through. I am a Captain in the Army Reserve here in Australia and attended a dinner the other night where one of the guests told us of his experience in Vietnam.<BR><BR>In my experience the old guys don't really say much but this guy did, he told us of how, during an all out attack on his Fire Base he thought, no, he knew he was going to die. At one stage he was counting his breaths, when he got to twenty he started to think that somehow he might live. It was one of the more emotionally draining experiences I have had.<BR><BR>I hope PH, like the first twenty minutes of Saving Private Ryan lets the viewer in some way know that terror, 'cause it will help us understand what these chaps did.<BR><BR>Morbid post over, move along, nothing to see here.
