I totally agree with what Tom Posted.


Many Combat Vets will not talk about what they went thru unless it is another Combat Vet, and if it is something that Hurt Them Deep Inside or a Loss of a Friend(Comrade In Arms) they will almost never talk about it.........

Doc, it also occurs to me that courage is not just about how you behave in war or when you're worried about whether you'll live or die.

It's about facing your inevitable fears in life head-on in any circumstance and doing the right thing no matter what.

Still, there's nothing so impressive as a SSAM who overcomes his or her fear in the heat of battle.

Tom
