I am impressed with this guy too.

It seems to me that it is more than just impressive, though. I think that there should be an age for armed service personnel, higher than which it becomes embarrassing.

Certainly there are lots of WWII references to the sadness of the old German guys serving in the later stages of the war. At the time there was even allied propaganda that claimed it was (negative/evil).

So you don't care how old a person is, serving in the armed forces. I don't get that. We disagree.
