Couldn't agree more and it is a scary scenario. That generation lived through the great depression and at least one world war. They know how bad war is and they also know the value of a a strong military. Even those of us that listened to their stories with great interest and focus can only gleen the hell these people lived through. Now they can't even find a bugle or trumpet player to play taps at their funerals. Sad and scary at the same time.
