AKA, well, I can only go on my own experience. Vietnam was quite a shift in the way America treats war, unfortunately. i'm simply saying that it seems my father's generation had a lot more of the "i'm gonna do whatever I have to to make sure my kids have ________," moreso than this generation.

I don't want to get off on a tangent, but I think part of it is we don't have a clear enemy. Granted, 9/11, Cold War, World Wars, you saw a lot of unity because we were bonded together for something and against something we felt to be threatening us. Its a much more complicated world now, we're not even sure we like our own country (some of us). Alright, this thread is getting ridiculous.
