True, just watching how emotional vets from WWII get today talking about what happened back then....65+ years ago. It would have to be one hell of a traumatic experience. But, I am sure active duty are going thru the same now.
The beginning of Saving Pvt. Ryan, where Ryan (with his family) is at the grave site of the Captain (Tom Hanks) and he breaks down...brings a lump to my throat and tears to my eyes!
