i remember an interview with E.Topp and he was haunted by nightmares of dying men and sinking ships....he looked so sad as he recounted these times.
I'm about to become really unpopular...

Does this kind of thing from veterans ever make you feel not-so-great about playing a game, for fun, which simulates such real events? I get it a lot playing Call of Duty. I'll be gunning down some guy on Carlson's Ridge, and think, "Gee, my grandad did this for real. I don't think he'd have approved of me doing this in my spare time."

Something to think about...or not.
