[1] If I had been born 60 years earlier I would have been to old to be
conscripted for WWII anyway.

[2] If I had been of an age to participate in WWII my contribution would
have been as a code-breaker (where the war was actually won). Dumb fucks
getting shot at hasn't won wars since the 19th C. Sending blacks and poor
white trash into Vietnam is an American shameful episode.
