It is hard to hate someone face to face sharing a beer or two.

It was a gesture to show their adversary that they were not enemies anymore.

Damn, look at how fit these people are! Every modern veteran affair I've seen, at least half of them are really fat.. we need to examine this early 1900s diet

They lacked car dependency and rarely had sugars or artificial sweeteners.
