Men in government don't suffer. It is the common person's son, father, brother, husband who suffers. It is the grocer, the factory worker, the student, the paper-pusher, the homeless, the average Joe who works at an average job, who lives an average life who are the ones who suffer, who die. War isn't glorious. It never was, and it never will be.
War is brutal, filthy, futile, and nauseating.
