This is an agenda and a part of our history which needs to be challenged and exposed.
However, its rarely mentioned due to political correctness and people's "safe spaces".
Our government has embarked on a policy of non-stop wars of aggression since WW2.
From as far back as Korea to current day Syria.
And the men and women who lost their lives did so serving a Military Industrial Complex which is slave to civilian masters controlled by special interests.

So then, it isnt celebrated?
Whether celebrated or not, I guarantee few involved even contemplate the meaning of the vast majority of all those vets dying. As said (in many, many previous posts), war is rarely about everyday peoples "interests", therefore, like the 4th of July, its an annual national tragedy.
