Getting back to the serious nature of the thread....
I know we all like to have experienced PCs, but with that experience comes age, and with that age, especially for a combat type, comes lasting and probably permanent injury. How much do we all think this should be reflected in RPing the said expert PCs?
As an example of injury, here in Australia we have a Clearance Diver who was previously in the infantry. Although serving in an active combat zone, he escaped serious injury until a training exercise (actually he was acting as a target during the testing of devices to detect surface swimmers approaching ships) when he was mauled by a shark. He lost a leg and arm.
Even so, he's still on the staff and physically puts to shame many of the more able bodied.
