There would certainly be a difference in the amount of time it would take to end a war. Us old folks don't have the patience those young'uns have so we'd just have to do the deed and get our butts back home. We have tv to watch and SS to collect. lol

Great thoughts here Alan.

WELL, For a start, there would be soldiers chatting on about incometax-whats new at the lotty-the price of pile cream-the price of fish and chips-and they don't make guns like they used to.
lol-lol
Great thoughts of you writing a little longer next time please? hurry!

There would be peace and belching that's the score. Excellent thought provoking piece.

GOD BLESS
