Excellent point. Being too serious is a danger too. And not addressed very often. Being around Military for the last 20+ years, some of the best Soldiers and Marines I have met, the toughest and the most intense have a sharp sense of humor and laugh and joke in the heat of battle to relieve stress. Making Characters too serious makes them unbelievable, but you have to be careful to make sure not to make them too jocular, also. They need toi be portrayed as serious professionals, but people who can enjoy their work and get loose.
GREAT POINT!!
