The next time you meet a vet - and every time after that - don’t say, “Thank you for your service.”. That’s just a trite cliche now.
Say, “I’m sorry: you went over there to fight for freedom while we sat and let the leftists take over here. You did it for nothing, and it’s all our fault.”
Once again the troops have been failed. At least they were not subjected to anti war assclowns from the ‘60’s-70’s.
