[GCFL-discuss] American Security Levels

[Discussion of the Good, Clean Funnies List]

Having been raised by a veteran of WWII,  I can tell you that his war 
experiences affected his entire life, and therefore mine also.  The ravages 
of war can have a ripple effect that is pretty hard to measure.  I would say 
that I have had a lot more to deal with then just "a bit of rationing"  and 
I was born at the end of the war.   Wars are necessary to put down evil but 
those who serve often pay a higher price than just the few years they are in 
combat.  They bring home some memories that are hard to deal  with alone.  I 
only found out about my Dad's war experiences during the last year of his 
life.
Now I understand why he drank as much as he did.  Of course I forgave him 
and respect his hard work in the service.
