Having lived with a man who was so damaged by the war for so many years, I held onto a deep hatred for anything military. I had to bite my tongue every time I heard him say "Semper Fi", order some Marine Corps memorabilia, encourage some innocent young person to join the military, etc. The last thing I wanted to do was watch or read about anything even remotely connected to war.I just saw it as having taken away the person I loved most in this world. His reluctance to talk about his experiences was just fine with me. Little did I know just how damaged he was. Maybe if he felt comfortable talking to me about it, he wouldn't have hidden so much from me for over 30 years.
Now that we are in the process of trying to heal, I owe it to him to be informed. I'm watching the program as I type and am finding myself feeling very emotional. I intend to keep watching because I know it will help me gain a more fair perspective. I will talk to him about it when I've finished watching the series.
