re: Do we Idolize the Military Service Men and Women too much in America?

I agree olewarakule......,,I'm not saying that I'm all that. I wouldn't be worthy to tie the young men's and women's boots who have gone into combat and fought, died,lost limbs, I damn sure ain't all that.
What I am saying is don't punish vets who were never asked by the powers that be to go into harms way. As an engineer, we did humanitarian missions, and those are some of the proudest moments of my life. A veteran is so much more than war in their service.
