Jerry, I know exactly where you are coming from. I hesitate to claim to be a Veteran along side of those who have "seen the elephant" We have a man in our church that served in France and Germany during WWII, then was sent to the Phillapines to train for the invasion of Japan. He finally came home, went to Med School and served as the only Family Practicioner in our small town for 50 years. I simply cannot stand beside him when they ask Vets to stand in church. I did serve 5 years in the Navy as a Torpedoman's Mate on old worn out diesel-electric submarines ("boats" to us) during a time when the Navy was spending all their money building nuclear boats. We often went to sea lacking parts and equipment that we simply could not get due to funding spent elsewhere. I may not have experienced bullets wizzing by my ears or depth charges thrown on my boat, but we did brave the dangers of the deep with faulty and missing equipment and long overdue yard periods . Still, I cannot stand next to the man I mentioned and claim equal status with him.
