| "Anyone
who has lived through combat and tried to talk about it to someone
who has not will remember the look. There is excitement, at first.
But then the listener's eyes draw away, sympathetic but distant
and, finally, simply uninterested. And you realize suddenly that
you have made your life, and your near death, a bore. So after a
while, you do not talk about the war to those who have not been
there. If you're a journalist, you write the story, publish the
picture. You talk about other things." "Many
of my generation, the career captains, majors, and lieutenant colonels
seasoned in that war [Vietnam] , vowed that when our turn came to
call the shots, we would not quietly acquiesce in half-hearted warfare
for half-baked reasons that the American people could not understand
or support. If we could make good on that promise, then the sacrifices
of Vietnam would not have been in vain." |
