Jerry H. Young: You see, I thought it was like a game. Polo or something like that. And on the first time I went up, I brought down a plane. That started it. That started everything. A treadmill. Somebody slapped me on the back and told me I was great and I had to go on. More planes. More dead men. More medals! There isn't any end. And what do you think happened to me? I was what they call, "a shining example." Is there anything more terrible than that? "A shining example." The only way I can go on is to kill somebody. When I get up in the morning, the first thing say to myself is, "well, you've got to do it again today."
