There is humor in the specter of the worst disaster in our nation's history. All I have to do is sweep away the debris of shock to find it.
Comedy is defiance. It's a snort of contempt in the face of fear and anxiety....
Humor results when society says you can't scratch certain things in public...
I think as a rifle platoon and company commander your view is about 1 000 meters in front of you and you hope you can cover that ground and not have to back up and give it up again.
