What am I tired of? My husband posted this letter and I just felt I needed to add a few comments that he did not.

My husband is a veteran of over 16 years in the military. He has been to more overseas combat than the average person will ever dream. I myself am also a vet though I did not see any combat time while I was in.

I get so tired of hearing how the soldiers only sign on the dotted line because they are poor, stupid or that they were "tricked" into it. These men and women give it their all and their blood, sweat and tears make this country what it is. GREAT.

These men and women are patriots and if you haven't been there what the hell do you know about giving to your country. You can't support the troops yet not support the cause.

Take it from a retired SNCO of 22 years. God Bless and get it done.

If Lyn were here, we would tell her:

It is FOR THE MOST PART damned liberals that think that. WE understand the men and women in the military, and we also understand their families, because many of us have been military ourselves.
