Do you honor current or former military members who do not serve in combat roles? Like for instance, people who work behind desks and just make the military machine move along.

I was a member of an EOD unit and our job was to make sure all LZ's were clear of explosives - was attached to the 64th Com group at Bien Hoa AB about 20 miles from Saigon - the day they were processing us in - our orderly/admin building was hit twice by recoil less rifle fire - the clerks ran to pre determined sandbagged areas and waited for the small arms from Charlie - which came once - from that day on I realized when you are in a war zone - your arse is a target.
