My own experiences in the military are pedestrian at best and not much to discuss.
Both of my grandfathers served in WWII. One of them was a surgeon (he just died this year at 90 in poor mental and physical health) who refused to carry a gun and stood firm by that conviction despite the hardships it caused. The other one served in India - none of the men in his group lived past 54.

My great-uncle survived Normandy Beach, never talked about it with us but he became a preacher after that experience.
