I Don’t Understand War.

I can’t understand war. I mean, to me you’d think you could avoid it somewhere, without so much loss of life. But then, you think we formed the United Nations, you know, to get together, to try and bring peace in the world, and look what’s happening. You can’t win. No, I think that they ... there should be some way that we can come to some … at least for different countries, come to some agreement that don’t cause all this trouble. I was fortunate, very fortunate. As I say, five of us that went over, three killed, one died of illness, and I hung on. But they all ... I wondered sometime, “Why? ” Because I did everything wrong when I went overseas. I mean, I didn’t smoke before I went overseas, didn’t take a drink. When I got overseas, I got mixed up with the boys there and I used to go out party with them, you know. When I come out of the line, at the estamany at night, and I ate anything … but I got through it all. A hundred and two, yeah, going on a hundred and three.
