When we approach Veterans' Day our thoughts often turn toward those brave men who answered their county's call to fight for the freedoms we enjoy in our own country. We envision what we have seen in movies - young men, often under the legal age of adulthood, fighting in the trenches of war in Europe during World War I (WWI) or World War II (WWll), freezing nearly to death in Korea, or stalking an unseen enemy in the jungles of Vietnam.
