Yeah ... not a nice thing for a parent to have ' playing ' on their mind.
War is not nice at all.
Not to push my own barrow here ... had an incident happen at RAAF Butterworth Malaysia ( over there on military exercise in 70's ) ... a group of rebels decided to play havoc one evening.... fired ' rocket propelled grenades ' across the airstrip.
Our F111C Aircraft were in a ' scatted ' patten on the tarmac ... but still caused some concern .... also the barracks were in the ' firing line '
We didn't get much sleep that night.... the rebels disappeared into the hills surrounding the Air Base.
I was only 19 at the time ... it put the wind up me ...!!
Flash.
