Darling, from one who knew a lot of them later on....they were not. The Average soldier on the Beach on D-Day was about 18 and 3/4. My old man was Ancient, at 26. They were babies. Some had more experience than others, but they were all way too young. My home, as a kid, was full of those boys, and I was the little pitcher with the big ears. " Bless em all!" as the song goes.

We see a lot of veterans. It shocks and horrifies me that so many were barely out of their teens when they faced their first enemies. I have actually met two who were seventeen! As I get older, it hurts more to find young men of that age were willing to die (preferably not, live through) for a government's failures. Some, believe it or not, have reduced me to tears, recounting what they did at that age. I honestly think, we ought to work harder to do away with war, but human nature is, unfortunately, not like that, is it?

Bettie probably knew.
In this thread is seen countless very beautiful and scarcely dressed women.
Well many of Bettie too, but a photo like this and another one where she is sitting on a coach, show how wonderful a woman can be, she didn’t need to undress to be lovely.
