Thank you vets! Do you know any?

Thanks for those in your family, and for others here and theirs. You are welcome, also! Served a little, peacetime, myself, and married to a career soldier, now retired. He served in Korea, Bosnia, Iraq, and Afghanistan. I have had other family that served as well. My dad did, and his uncle, and some others prior to that.

Thanks, all! Thanks to the families as well, because I know it isn't easy!

What I find abhorrent is the denial that wars are fought for economic reasons - but carry on - every generation forgets the past, new cannon fodder will always be available.
