memorial-day veterans-day children
We sit at our consoles and play "Gears of War", but we don't see images from war. We don't turn on the news and see the evidence of war, the result of war.

We just don't see the pictures. There's no drive-by on the freeway of death up close. So we don't really see bravery. Jamie Lee Curtis
