WAR HEROES


I believe to have watched this far in my life at least 500 movies about WWII, plenty of which portray some hero in some very dangerous situation – planned by himself – that ends the lives in some spectacular way of the enemies, who are whatever the war is talking about, Italians, Greeks, partisans or whatever plenty else did participate to the second world war.
My astonishing discovery however is that those heroes, who I thought were true heroes, who had very strong motivations to act in the ways seen in movies were all just on drugs, so I did – as I always do – a little research on this subject and not only I discovered that Hitler himself was a drug addicted and died just before his senseless use of drugs would surely kill him, but – to my great surprise and astonishment – our US soldiers too did heavy drugs when fighting in Vietnam.
Well, this new information element completely removes my “admiration” for all the war heroes in all the war movies I ever watched since I was a teenager.
As usual I put few links and a couple of Youtubes for your entertainment, but I swear that even with the simplest google search can give millions of links to websites on this subject, therefore – as usual – consider this just a quick selection of what can be quickly and easily found.
While you enjoy yourself, don’t forget that a small donation for my TBI recovery cause is comparable to paying for my work to give you “filtered” information about something that may interest you. So thank to all those who’ll put their hands in the pockets.
