I recently read a comment on youtube that said, the British army were part of the problem and that they (The poster) had no respect for them. This had
my blood boiling, no matter what you think about the wars in Afganistan, these are brave men and women fighting for us in a foreign land and they
deserve our up-most respect!
The amount of respect we give the armed forces in general not just the army in this country is frankly shameful, it is one thing I actually quite
admire about America is the amount of respect they give their veterans.
I think the respect from the common man, working class realm is very high. But the government doesn't seem to give a hoot (even though their the ones
our boy/girls over there).
