When the troops are in town we get to see how young they really are. In the movies there are 30 something actors playing 20 somethings and 20 somethings playing teenagers. In fact, in real life they look like babies; these youngsters we send to war.
Laurence John Fishburne in Apocalypse Now actually looked the part because he was in fact a teenager.
My heart goes out to the families of our fallen soldiers and I pray for our servicemen and women out there. Thank you for your commitment .
Let us not be fooled by what actors portray... These young soldiers do this in real-life in real-time.
