God bless all of these men.
Now pajama boys simper and prance across the land.
I hope our country can come back someday but I’m not holding my breath.
There are plenty rough and ready warriors in our military today. They are fighting enemies from without and within. You may want to thank God there are some decent people left before you disparage all of them.

I know what you mean -- the armed forces have been wussified and turned into a giant social experiment, it seems. But at the same time I think there are still plenty of young people that are patriotic enough to answer the call if needed.
There is no doubt, the men and women that served in WWII deserve to be called the "greatest generation". That was probably the last war in which we were united as a nation, and the last war that we absolutely had to win unconditionally.
Unfortunately the war we're in now is with an enemy that's been fighting us for 1,400 years, and we still don't have a government that's willing to call this enemy by it's name. Currently we're in a period in which the uncivilized enemy is winning, taking more territory and purging our kind within their new borders. It will be very difficult to take these lands back from those people -- the Jihadis.
