Are you aware that war often turns men into homeless relics of their former youth?

And surviving war, and all the death and destruction that accompanies it until the enemy is defeated, often turns men into motivated, strong, and honorable human beings who understand that freedom must be defended for their children and grandchildren.

That was the message of "Saving Private Ryan"...

"Earn this..."

The final scene of that movie, where the elderly Ryan asks his wife if he's been a good man, is ALWAYS a tear-jerker for me.

Millions of men that survived WWII and the following conflicts became, or remained, "good men", despite the hell they lived through.
