WAR is a dirty business full stop!

Chug
We could talk all day about 2 wrongs don't make a right, etc. But it annoys me when people indulge in a la carte remorse/indignation exemplified by that line
" Of course, many of the veterans now feel guilty about what they did".
We had a very good family friend who died 3 years ago. He was a tank driver with the 4/7 Dragoon Guards and landed in one of the earliest waves on D day and fought through France and Holland. Although he survived there was a shadow over the rest of his life because he had lost his beloved 15 yr old only sister in an air raid on Lowestoft in 1942.
