Wars are not glamorous.

 

[Barry Poppins]

They are not and should not be romanticized; sadly, movies have sort of shaped

our whole vision of war.

He helped several of his buddies get full disability with the VA for Agent Orange. That stuff was horrible.

My dad died from Agent Orange

It's kind of a common thing for a lot of veterans, very aloof and very anti-social when it comes to their experiences in wars like WW2 and Vietnam.

as they should be. It’s someone’s prerogative to talk about their past or not. My grandfather loved telling war stories but he wasn’t really involved in fighting. He did see some heinous shit though.

I heard the burn pits were a big problem in Desert Storm and such. Burning human waste with diesel fuel poured on it. Caused a lot of health problems.
