This may sound a bit melodramatic, but it is strange to look at your old man and know that he has killed a number of people in his life. Especially since he is such a gentle soul now. As a kid I was scared to death of him...for good reason. But now as an adult with his military career long behind him its a starnge perspective. Interestingly, he rarely mentions his military career...no ego wall or war stories....very quiet whenever any thing related to the military comes up. It was odd he brought up this thing about the M60 field manual.
FWIW, he despises Bush's Iraq policy...
