It wasn't that long ago when a news headline with the phrase "elderly vet" was referring to a WWII veteran. I remember when almost every Dad in the neighborhood was a WWI veteran. Now they are almost all gone, and the phrase elderly vet is being applied to Korean War vets.

It won't be long before "elderly vet" refers to Vietnam War vets. The older I get, the faster time passes.

Back to the story, anyone who is in a fight with an knife-wielding opponent at touching distance and isn't hurt is a very fortunate man. Knives at touching distance scare me more than guns do.
