   Sorry - that wasn't politically correct, - but it is my true feelings.

   Wow! where did all the gals come from all the sudden? Seriously, welcome 
aboard. The female perspective is always refreshing.
   The last female who was a constant contributor as I recall left screaming 
in a PMS hysterical fit when some of us didn't fully agree with all she had 
to say. 
   I said at that time one of the best soldiers I ever knew, Col. Marg 
Wolman, USMC was someone who any one of us would have been proud to have as a 
CO.
    As to Hollywood, hey, don't forget *MASH* filmed entirely in the 
beautiful Santa Monica mountains.   
    And I agree with Mike, if Nuremberg taught us anything it taught us 
individual responsibilty and that can not be negated by all the well 
intentioned excuses in the world. Even at the cost of your own life.  They 
teach that now at the Academies.
   BTW, we have a lot of Korean immigrants in northern California and they 
are hard working model citizens who I'm proud to know.
