Before someone complains, I know it's Memorial Day. I've lost friends and family. I'm thanking the living.

I couldn't think of an appropriate way to phrase it. Maybe I'm growing up.
Thank you, I am a Vietnam Veteran and I have lost many friend's! I appreciate your thread!

It can never be said enough. Especially by someone with the word "Poop" in their username. Thank you, Ms. Poop. Thank you.
Is this very_bad_man's latest incarnation, or are apostrophes just that fucking befuddling to this generation of internet mother-fuckers (that is, those who wish to fuck their mothers)?

Everyone seems to be a vet today. Makes me sad for my father and grandfather.

Nah. Nothing anyone else does or says could diminish their sacrifices and achievements. Today is for them
Oh, I'm just pullin' yer leg. I really do echo your sentiment - it's just a funny name
Like Q said, you can PM Laurel if you want to change it. She is nice and awesome, but the truth is that people here will give you hell no matter what your name is. It's the GB - the only people we like are cats.

I know, love. Thank you for your thoughts. Everyone knows karate and graduated mit on this board tho.
It's the fucking Lit. forum! Lower your standards or expectations!
It is very sad that a person like this person would state idiocy on a thread for honoring soldiers!
This tells me this person is a very uneducated moron!
I am sorry that people like Phelia use a thread to honor our soldiers that gave all to vent frustrations of not serving as I and many other veteran's did for our country. Again, I apologize for uneducated people like this that can not understand the thought you put behind this honor to these soldiers. Thank you for this thread!

It's what she does. If she really likes you, she'll follow you around and call you a racist.
Thank you Ann, I put her on my iggy list, so I have nothing to hear from this very sad person again. When I came home from Vietnam I was spit on at the airport, so I took off my uniform so this would not happen when I flew to New York. We were not very popular when returning to the States. The sad part is I put my life on the line for idiots like her.

The only service you ever did was lip service, dipshit.

You did nothing of the sort.
Besides, you weren't fighting to protect America. Vietnam wasn't about to invade any time soon.

You really don't know how true that is:
The number that served in the military from Aug 5, 1964 to May 7, 1975
(Vietnam Era veterans) 9,087,000
The number that served in the South East Asian theater of war: 3,403,100
The number that actually served within the borders of South Vietnam: 2,709,918
1,713,823 of those who served in Vietnam were still alive as of August, 1995 (census figures).
During that same census count, the number of Americans falsely claiming to have served in-country was: 9,492,958.
The 2000 census showed 1,002,511 Vietnam veterans alive.
During that same census there were 13,853,027 claiming to be Vietnam vets.
As of the 2010 census we have 807,000 Vietnam veterans alive. 29.78% of those who served in country. No word on the wannabes.
Yea after the fightin's done the wannabes are all over the place.

Not until the hostages were released from Iran and greeted with parades did America wake up to how poorly it had treated Viet vets.
For most of the 1970s, it was not a socioeconomic plus to admit having served.
Later, in some weird way, it became fashionable to have served there.
Does anybody doubt that Clinton and Gingrich, Biden and Cheney, now wish they hadn't dodged?
That's why, when people now piously pronounce "Thank you for your service," a lot of real vets are thinking "It don't mean nothin'."

You don't know what people who served "think" about being complimented for having served, asshole. Don't even try that shit.

I'd like to thank the vets by not sending them to die for stupid fucking reasons, but I don't think that's gonna happen anytime soon.
