Are we Americans gradually becoming a people who just can't see themselves being in the military?
I have a copy of Bill Mauldin's "Up Front" which is a commentary plus a collection of cartoons about two WWII soldiers, Willy and Joe.
In one cartoon, one of the two has a bar of soap and a towel and is looking down on the other who is sitting in a water filled mud hole taking a bath. The first one says to the one in the mud hole something like "No thanks, I am looking for mud what ain't been used".
Are we still psychologically capable of enduring even what WWII dog faces did? |
