Hi Mike, I think you're right- sometimes it's tougher on adults than it is on the kids. With regards to the soldier, he was eating a chocolate bar during actual fighting. I just think it goes to show how habitual this war has become. I also saw an interview with a farmer wearing a bullet proof vest and helmet while he is in his tractor harvesting his fields. War has just become... normal, a part of life. I'm in the US too. Among my friends, we were all aghast when this started. Now we're still against the invasion, but more habitualized to it. Whether this is good or bad is maybe another story.
