| #2 Army Life - You are right on both counts. In my callow youth, I took for granted all that our military did for us. I probably would have been one of those who snickered at sarcastic comments about our troops (like Kerry's 'study hard or you'll end up in Iraq'). And sadder still is the fact that many of my professors, who - in theory - are supposed to help young people to understand the world around them, would have snickered right along with me. Thankfully, I have come to realize that those who've been "stuck in Iraq" (or anywhere else our troops have served) are the true heart and soul of our people. They (you all, I should say for many here) are the ones who make all of our good lives possible, whether we appreciate it or not. I may never truly understand what it means to serve, but I hope to never miss an opportunity to encourage support for the greatest military in history - great not only in power, but in motivation and accomplishment too. How much worse a place the world would be, if not for what American troops have done for over two centuries now! Many thanks to all who serve or have served. God bless you and your families. And thank you, GolfBravo, for another excellent post. |

| #1 That is just a snapshot of the military. Those who do not serve will never truely understand. As I say that, let me make one thing clear; support from the people of the US is vital. Without it, we are an island of what the media calls an archaic belief. |
