My wife's grandfather landed on Iwo Jima in WWII, he would hide under the kitchen table during thunderstorms

It’s really depressing to watch him sit with his hands over his ears when fireworks start.


My best friend sits with his hands over his crotch, to hide his freedom boner...Probably because he flew a UC-130 gunship.

Like someone else said, everyone experience is different.

I have a dear friend who was a grunt in the worst places during the gulf war. He doesn’t enjoy these days

No. My father and all of my uncles were WW2 veteran with varying degrees of combat experience. Fireworks never bothered them.

I was in the Civil War and they don't bother me.

They remind me of my horrific days at Gettysburg. The cannons burping in the distance. The drummer boy next door.
Muskets being packed with black powder. I can still smell it.
