I hear ya, Bob. My parents didn't seem to like war very much, more so Mom than Pop. But, he did make me shut off "The Green Berets" one time. No explanation, "Shut that damn thing off! I'm sick and tired of Wayne and his phoney, flagwaiving BS."

Mom once sarcastically told me, "When you spend half your life watching perfectly good young men go off to war and come back broken, dismembered, screwed up in the head , dead or not at all, you get a little sick of it."
