We all grew up on cleaned up versions of war ala John Wayne, a man who never
served but, did sit on the committee to censor those Hollywood types who did
and wanted to make movies about the real affects of war.

Yes, I think some do know. But the youngsters have been fed on glamorous
aspects. Too many today are now saying ... but I didn't know I'd have kill
anybody. The military should do more to really prepare them psychologically
for the grim realities of war. So that later when they get called up, they
won't be shocked when they see people blown to bits on the field. That may
sound funny coming from me, but I think it's a disservice to send people to
the field unprepared.
