Yes, it is interesting that most of the guys that fight the wars are
not there out of choice. They are there not out of some burning desire
to kill the other side, but, are there to do a job they have been
ordered to do. The pilots, sailors and soldiers I've talked with are
willing to talk about the personal side of their wartime experience -
the people met, comrades, fun time in camp and to an extent what the
war machines were like to operate. They go understandably quiet the
closer the conversation gets to what really happens in wartime.
