He certainly wasn't on Iraq, that's for sure. More than a few people wish he'd been more bluster than action where Iraq was concerned,

Actually he has the worst combination, bluster gets him into trouble and his complete unwillingness to admit a mistake compounds it. Anyone could see that Osama and the Taliban were going to take a licking after 9/11. This wasn't some special gift of Bush. Bluster did make him strut around about how he was going to have him dead or alive.

By Uncle Bill passed away in the early 1980s. I'm not sure his age, probably late 80s. He wasn't in WWI (or at least not overseas) but I don't know why.

My neighbor's grandfather was in WW1. He was already old in the early 1960s. He had athsma from gas. He had several artillary shell casings. He had dinged them with a punch making scenes of the battles and towns. We thought they were really cool. He liked visitors so he would tell us about each picture.
