RE: Current book: Great Escapes

Yes I seriously enjoy the war/military genre and think us both having served in the military makes us understand things more. I wish kids today did National Service as they really do need it. Maybe there would not be so much trouble around if people had training and certain skills.

I wrote about that a while ago, national service, and feel strongly it would be of benefit to all concerned. Alas, we live in a soft world that leans towards mediocrity rather than discipline and ownership.

Agreed. I noticed a difference in the caliber of person once they stopped it here. It makes such a big difference and do not regret doing my service because I benefitted on so many levels personally.
