[GulfWar1Vet]

The E-4's response is EXACTLY why I SUPPORT the TROOPS and AMERICA!

Do we want Americans spitting and despising American Troops again like in Vietnam?

I don't. I want it to be like after Gulf War I.

Welcome to FR. I'm a Gulf War vet too.

Trust me there are enough of us old Nam vets around that will take to the streets with ball bats and other weapons if the loonie lefty anti Americans try the "blame the troops" routine again. I would risk prison in putting a servere hurting on someone dissing these "new centurians" when them come home. And I bet I am not alone.

Anyone who spits on or otherwise abuses these brave people cannot claim the title of American.

If I ever saw someone dissing a vet I think my blood would boil.

Folks do not relize that the severly disabled would be left to die in other countries and we are so grateful that this country we can live a free life.

We older Vets must let the left wing know that there will be zero tolerance to any miss treatment of our Vets and their families during and after this removal of Saddam.

It will be the same attitude about not allowing someone with a box cutter to take over an airliner to make it a guided cruise missile.

Our flags are up. I have a big Yellow Ribbon to put around the Oak Tree in our front yard when this officially starts. That ribbon will stay up until this is over, and most of our people are home again. Some type of signs will be put up, honoring our service people.
