Older soldiers never...quit?

An A1 story today in Washington Post about older soldiers who are still, or are back fighting or serving as contractors. Would be good one to try locally, perhaps before next group ships out or someone goes to work there. Here's nut graph from Post:
Decades removed from the conflict that molded -- and, for some, scarred -- their generation, dozens of Vietnam veterans have signed up for duty in Iraq. Some are still in uniform, graying guardsmen and reservists activated as part of the largest call-up since the last time most saw combat more than 30 years ago.
