(((((((((((( Troy ))))))))))))
In this age of the internet and watching war on tv as it happens, we as a society have become so de-sensitized to hearing and seeing the horrors of it all.
Years ago, before we were all so "connected" we used to let our imaginations answer those kinds of questions and we wouldn't be so willing to ask someone like yourself that kind of question. Maybe it was out of respect, maybe it was out of fear of knowing or really hearing the details.
I'm so sorry that someone (a friend??) would be so utterly inconsiderate. They obviously were more interested in their morbid curiosity being fulfilled than realizing just how a question like that would affect you or any member of our military.
