And heroes all of them, defending the country.

"""Sorry Hans, a run-over Jay-Walker IS a Veteran!!!""" Hi!


The point beig, Brain, that civilians die in the course of both
"peacetime" and states of war too.

Do a bit of history research on "Maritime Marine", "Civil Air
Patrol" and "Office of Civilian Defense" during WW2.

CAP "civilians" still lose their lives "in the line of duty", and
they weren't even getting paid for it.
