My older relatives and acquaintances that lived through those times tell me there was none of the post-action political infighting we see today. I was attempting to draw out anyone here, on the board, who was around at that time out to see what they thought. So please don't tell me to "do some historical research before concluding this"; that is exactly what I was trying to do.

Wasn't a rebuke, was a suggestion.
Not a lot of 80 y/o's on OT so doubt can do much historical research here. Probably have to resort to history books.
The other point was that we are not in a "post-action" period like after WW2 was done and won. The war in Iraq is not done and won, the war on terrorism is in its early days. So not an analogous situation.
