    There are no great men, only great challenges that ordinary men are forced by circumstances to meet.

    I am amazed that most of the pictures of the military from the 50 -60 era have 30 to 40ish solders in them.
    What happend?

    Most probably served in WWII and/or Korea and stayed in for their 20 years. I know all three of my DI's at PI in 1962 had been in WWII.
