Yeah, LH, my uncle was eat up with war... He was 17 in 1939 and tried unsuccessfully to join the German army because my grandmother wouldn't let him but when he turned 18 he marched right into the Marine recruiting office and signed up... He was twice wounded in the Pacific and again wounded in Korea but that didn't phase him... I think it was '65 when he went back to the Marines but by this time a life's worth of bad habits had caught up to him and the Marines turned him down this time...

Very entertaining individual, however...
