Wal Jim, it seems to be something completely unexpected by many modern yuppie types, out of the ordinary, and a total anomaly when modern day boys step up and do manly things. For those of us who are vets, we wonder why anyone is surprised because the military trains boys to become men all the time.

Take a stable young man with common sense and teach him duty, responsibility, obligation and leadership, and then give him responsibility and let him know you expect him to do well and SHAZAM!!! HE USUALLY DOES!!

But I'll bet that simple formula ain't any big secret to most of those on this forum.
