"Brave & Coward" misused words OP/ED
#2
RE: "Brave & Coward" misused words OP/ED
"No courage without fear." If you aren't worried about dying that's not courage, that's stupidity. I got shot at a lot in the Navy, mostly early '70s, and I never stopped being scared. Despite that I did my job and that's what helped me survive. (That and a lot of luck.)

If anybody says they were in combat and weren't afraid they're lying, insane, or stupid.
