    Heroism is not something you "try to do" or "win an award for". When it happens, you will do what you have to do to kill them and keep you and your friends alive. Save the posturing for your fantasy life in video games; wanna be heroes get people killed. Professional soldiers just do their jobs (like the original poster's father)

    I lol'd

    I tend to use relatives that have served in combat as a rule of thumb. They don't talk about the death they caused, the bodies they have seen, or the horror of what they witnessed as candidly as you do.

    I also tend to use people like you as a rule of thumb as well .... those that chat up their service and "war time" experience tend to be full of shit and an embarrassment to the uniform .... if they ever wore one.

    Good point, inaccurate in this case, however. Cun_.

    Looking back at what I wrote...i can see it does look self-serving. wasnt my intent. /bash myself

    I take back the "cunt" comment (mostly), so I will just leave part of the word.

    Strayrogue, nope. Just doing a job.

    Stray, when you give neg rep..spell it right. "Moron" is correct. "Moran" is something other than correct.

    I've been getting a lot of neg rep from a guy that spells it the same way.

    Thats not always true. I know a lot of people that are loud and boastful about their kills and the shit they've seen. Me, I have to be drunk first.
