But it's not the comparing of battle casualties of one war with those of another war that's important. What I think is remarkable here is the sense of resolve people had during other conflicts that we could bear the costs, and we could do it. After Dieppe, a lot of Canadians picked up their lunch boxes and went back to work here in Canada.
It just seems that somehow in this case, maybe it's a particular case, in suffering these casualties, which are less than we do on a lot of peacekeeping missions in Bosnia and so on, and in training accidents perhaps, we don't have the stomach for it, and I'm not quite sure why that is.
