This may have been true of the Navy but we grunts and dogfaces enjoy talking about our tours of combat. Had any of you been at the reunion of the First Infantry Division ( or any Army Division for that matter, I belong to the 1st ID [ B Co. 2/16 Inf.] and the 3rd ID [FROG]) this last July in Phoenix you would have heard lots of stories from men who were there chewing the dirt.

I have found just the opposite, those that don't like to talk about it are those that weren't there to talk about it. Of course there is always the exception to the rule.

I server from 21 Jan. 1970 to 1 Jan. 1991. Retired an SFC.
