My father joined up for World War II. I spent 25 years in uniform during the cold war, volunteer as well. Patrick Henry said, "The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their county; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman." That's why I have the utmost respect for those who served in the military, especially int times of war, even if I don't always agree with their viewpoints. And why I can muster little respect for you.
you have no idea what my situation is and why i am not in the military.
