A lot of vets like 'Good Morning Vietnam' - I get great letters from guys.
I can't find a person without some link to the armed forces!
When you write a high-tech thriller, and then people in the defense establishment start calling you - people I can't name - you feel you've hit a nerve.
Since far fewer people are recruited to serve in a voluntary military, the connection between America and its military is increasingly tenuous and less personal.
I've spent most of my life like most Americans - without any immediate connection to active duty military.
Leonid Breznev was an old man and despite his own military experience in World War II, he on the other hand was not very close to the military.
Fox News Channel has a unique and very supportive relationship with our nation's military. We are proud of it. It's part of who we are.
If it wasn't for the military I probably would not have ever come to Bosnia for vacation.
I have a military background in my family.

I was born in East Germany, before the wall came down. We sort of escaped, I guess. I grew up all over the place. Germany, London, back and forth between Minnesota and Germany. I was sort of an army brat, but not in the army.
Growing up, I had military members in my family.

I'm an entertainer in the military-entertainment complex.
My dad and grandpa were in the army and as a country singer you're constantly playing at military bases all across the country and meeting soldiers and their families and hearing their stories.

Most people know nobody in the military.
I'm very pro-military. It's a big part of my life I don't talk about much or get to access much in my work.
