My Uncle Harry (James Harry Smith,) was much like the character, Hub McCann, played by Robert Duvall. He served in the U.S. Marine Corps during WWII. He was in the brutal Mariana Islands campaign in the Pacific, where he was wounded in 1944 while taking another wounded soldier to safety during heavy fire, and later he received a Purple Heart.

Where the Dust Never Settles: A Waziristani’s Reflection on a Century of Foreign Wars
I was born in Waziristan, a rugged, beautiful region tucked between the jagged folds of the mountains on Pakistan’s northwest frontier. It’s a place where poetry lives in the same breath as war, and the sound of drone engines is as familiar as the call to prayer.

When the Mouse Wears a Tux and the Donkey Breaks Its Back: A Capitalist Tragedy.
In a perfectly paved European street surrounded by luxury buildings and morning sunlight, a bizarre yet strangely familiar scene unfolds: a ragged, exhausted donkey, bent under the crushing weight of five cardboard boxes, stands frozen. His eyes are heavy, worn out, almost hollow. Around him, well-dressed figures in tuxedos gather, but something is off. Their faces aren't human. They are mice literal white mice, standing upright in tailored suits, laughing, clapping, and chatting cheerfully.

A new U.S. Air Force analysis recommends continuing the development of NGAD, as well as terminating the NGAS stealth tanker program which was supposed to support the next gen fighter in contested airspace.
