One of the few highlights at my current job was getting one of these daring soldiers for our show. Talked with him for 30 minutes afterwards and the stories were amazing. It puts things into perspective, especially a comment he made about how the best times were traveling in the mountains. They would be in these beautiful places and could mentally escape while trudging along. But then the sounds of war would bring him back to reality of why they were there.

On a related note, The War is going to be on PBS Sunday night. This should be an excellent film.

Anything by Ken Burns is gonna be excellent. The guy just has a gift.

Too bad our TV doesn't receive dish or cable, and we don't have rabbit ears (it's a young kids thing, ya know). :rolleyes:

I'll have to wait for the DVD release. I'm really looking forward to this series.
