    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    It's so important to never forget this kind of history. Were all so very young and we must not forget what our grandparent's generation took part in. Yes war is wrong and it's hell but freedom isn't free. Thanks for sharing this.
