Art,
Your problem and the reason for your screwed up perception is that you equate emotional involvement with intellectual knowledge. No book will give you the "feelings" associated with experiencing combat - although many come close. Direct experience alone will not give you the in depth knowledge of all aspects of a specific war that can be gained from reading and analyzing the information that is available. You experienced the emotions of combat. You refuse to experience or even acknowledge that the intellectual / analytical side exists. That does not make you a better person, it makes you a closed minded, vindictive, and obnoxious little man who could be a positive example of a WW II veteran instead of an embarrassment to those who honorably served their country in uniform.

Because I'm knowledgeable on the subject, in fact I know more about it than at least 1 B-26 bombardier, although that really isn't saying much. BUFDRVR "Stay on the bomb run boys, I'm gonna get those bomb doors open if it harelips everyone on Bear Creek" You don't understand cabdrvr. WW II was a real shooting war. You may not believe this but men went out on missions and some never came back. Hard to believe since that is war outside your personal experience. But believe me, it is true. I believe personal experience is worth more than just reading books. But maybe you should read a few books on WW II and find out what a real shooting war is all about Of course the book will never give you the feeling you might get over the heavily defended Cologne marshalling yards, but try to imagine what it was like. If you can't experience it, you can at least dream about it. Then you can tell everyone how much you know about WW II.

I would normally assume that your post (below) was another example of someone forging your ID in this group. Honestly, at this point, the default assumption is that another content free insane screed is indeed your post.
