[quote="Low spark":fc1b1][quote="Captain Wilkins":fc1b1]My Pa was also in WW2, with the AIF in the pacific. However, he died when i was five, so i don't really know any of his politics, which is quite a shame, since he was fairly astute on such matters[/quote:fc1b1]

That is sad, sorry for you loss as well. My father was an is a major influlnce on my views on politics and war, He was very against the Veit Nam War, It wasn't until he was 80 years old, did he finally opened up and tell us how about the horrors he was part of in WWII.[/quote:fc1b1]

Thanks for the condolences, Spark. I know what you mean about your father being a major influence on your views. Personally, i have been told by almost everyone who knew him that my Grandfather was a really good guy, so i've based alot of my morals and principles around what i believe he would do/think.
