Nice story. I think it's implicit knowledge that soldiers believed in what they were fighting for in the initial stages of the war but like everything else in life time and experiance change people. You start seeing things as they are rather than as they are packaged and presented.

As for Microsoft, you can't build a nation without Microsoft. How do you think they've managed to have a monopoly in the software business for so long? It doesn't surprise me one bit they are there given our government's open wallet policy and odious accounting.
