Well said.

I have the great fortune to be able to speak with combat veterans of WWII on occasion at work.

Most recently while speaking with a one of these vets (D-Day to Bastogne) I relayed an insignificant story to him in which he paused and replied

"I only brought 2 things home with me.
When we liberated Buchenwauld I went into where they burned the bodies. When the Germans were done they took the ashes and pressed them into squares and put a number on it.
I took two squares".(giving me a look as if to say I have no idea why I did) He then disjointedly went on to describe what the GI's thought were hay mounds as they approached the camp... They werent hay they were f&%ng bodies...naked...tears

His dimeaner completely changed, he said these F&%NG people today dont know how good they got it, complain about everything, I dont care if gas goes to 5(explative) bucks...
