I thought the second half of this article was pretty awesome.
I have a statement: Anybody who gives his life in war is an idiot…“Your life isn’t given,” I remember him saying, “it’s brutally ripped away from you. You’re no good to your buddies dead, and when the bullets start pouring in you don’t give a goddamn about God, country, Yale, your loved ones, the last full measure of devotion or any other of that Legionnaire patriotic crapola. You just want you and your buddies to see at least one more sunrise.”
It’s actually surreal to think of a time when America was populated by brave, tough, freedom-loving people. It’s also surreal to think those same brave, tough, freedom loving people went on to raise such a fuck-up of a generation.
