Don't be suprised to lose your job then. I haven't seen Fish Mitten post in a while, he's probably filling out the forms to lose you as we speak.
I'll vouch for John Garfield. He not only lived through the decades, he saw the fighters up close and personal.
I can't understand why such an exemplary bunch of 18-35 year olds who love fighting haven't enlisted to fight in the war.
I enjoy his posts too, and I believe he knows his stuff, but he's like God - we have to assume its the gospel.
