What was the most difficult day you remember when serving?

Have you ever seen any movies which you think accurately reflect some of the experoience you went through?

Do you think the Vietnam vets were treated unfairly?

What can you tell me about your feelings regarding the current conflict in Iraq?

Are there any regrets you have all these years later?

As an aside- I was in the military, and think that Full Metal Jacket is the only movie that ever came close to my experience. The rest were silly. Also, my grandfather's best friend was in the Army from 1939 until 1946. He was in the Battle of the Bulge and a number of other battles because he was infantry. Physically speaking, he was about 5' 6" and 130 lbs. He was wounded 3 times and was awarded 3 purple stars, and a Bronze Star retroactively many years later for surviving the battles his unit was involved in. He became a bookbinder after getting out and died alone in 1985, without ever marrying, and he refused to buy Japanese or German products, which would be difficult now. He was kind of an anti- Rambo, meek and unassuming, but I think the things he saw in the war really affected him. I was really young when I knew him, but remember him saying that he didn't want to get close to new guys because they got killed so often.
