Norton: Not ever having seen combat I wouldn't presume to try to tell anyone who has what it's like. The think about Owen's poems and a great many others who actually saw the shit( I imagine) that the battlefield really is, can give us non-combatants a taste of what it's like. I have yet to come across Vietnam poetry though I would like to see that perspective, and Desert Storm is another that has never been written about. I suppose that with CNN showing things up close, the poetry would be superfluous.
