[QUOTE="satellitedriver, post: 848677, member: 1664"] [COLOR=#008000][/COLOR][COLOR=#006400][B]It was a [SIZE=4]World [/SIZE]War, each nation came into the fight in stages. As to the French, one can still buy a French WWII [SIZE=2]rifle that was never fired and only dropped once.[/SIZE] Factoid; 52 million people in died WWII, 38 million were civilians. Damn sobering fact about War. DS is correct, we all payed a big part. The one quote that has always stuck with me about the solidarity of WWII is; "All gave some, some gave all." We now sacrifice nothing, except our young and finest. The sad fact, to me, is that all nations are presently under attack in a World war, by a small fanatical group, and there is no collective/ unified solidarity, to combat the clear and present threat. This week, two Texan men will be buried with full military honors and I use to deliver to the family of one of them. Now, " Some gave/give all , and the rest of us just watch it on TV, or the internet." Total disconnect We get bored and flip the channel to see what is going on with "Weinergate", non-reality shows, ect..... All I can do is send money to organizations that give some comfort to our troops. Sorry for going off on a rant, but this is a subject near and dear to me. [/B][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
