RON BLANK wrote on May 30, 2005 City and State: Unit: Service or Relationship: OTHER Comments: One of the tragedies of war is the lie about what happens when it ends. The Hollywood myth that the soldiers who were in the same outfit continue to know each other and talk to each other is just plain bull shit. Actually, it becomes very lonely after a war. One would think that any experience as intense as serving during a war, an experience that never leaves one alone for the rest of their life, would be filled with innumerable discussions with his “buddies”. This is the way the movies portray it, isn’t it? I am 72 years old and in all that time I have never recognized the name or description of any soldier I served with. Judging by the messages on this site neither has anybody else. After a war it’s like a being one rock in a handful of rocks hurled on a beach from the top of a hundred foot cliff. The military should have some established way for soldiers to easily keep in touch with one another, if they choose to. It should be an automatic part of the optional benefits of having been a soldier – being able to share experiences in a way that is convenient, accurate, and supportive. I believe every soldier must have questions about their service that will remain unanswered unless they can speak with others who were there. Keywords:
