    My grandfather told me that after WWII was over, equipment was dumped in the Pacific and Atlantic oceans rather than bring it back.

    It's kind of sad, actually, and an ironic testament to the times. The history and significance that was World War Two may just as well be buried on the ocean floor next to this old Jeep for all most contemporary people care.

    I was watching a show on the Military Channel on Wednesday, about the very end of World War One. It chronicled the last hours leading up to the armistice, and the story of the last British soldier to be killed in the war.

    They brought the man's granddaughters ought to visit the grave, and when the host asked if their family had ever visited the grave before, they just shook their heads and said no one had ever thought of it.

    How sad.

    @Ford Tempo Fanatic: I don't understand what glib "Bush sucks" remarks have to do with this particular story. The featured story on the special in question was of a British soldier killed at the end of World War I (November, 1918) and buried in a military cemetary in the woods of Belgium. The granddaughters were in their 50's at least.

    England basically lost a large percentage of a generation of young men in that war. It touched every family in England in such a profound way that not even the American experience in World War II can touch (we came into WWI late in the game and while our losses were significant, they were nothing compared to what England, and France, Germany and Russia for that matter, suffered). People in general during that time weren't in touch with their emotions like we suppose to be today. They just didn't talk about it.

    There is plenty to bash Bush about, but this story had nothing to do with the youth of today or our current military entanglements.

    @pauljones: There's sometimes a tendency to try to forget the worst tragedies and pretend they never occurred. It isn't right, but it happens. Take a look at how many young Russians are now looking up to Josef Stalin. I'm willing to bet that many of them have a relative who met an untimely end at his hands.

    Now if anyone, even just one, person at Chrysler had half a brain, they'd really grab this opportunity. Safety is important, and a fantastic selling point.

    This may be the one and only thing Dodge can shove into Toyota's face and actually have ground to stand on.
