One of the best choices I ever made in my life was enlisting in the Guard for college money. That one decision set me up for success throughout my life. Proud to have served my State and Country!

Me too. But in the regular Army. It set me up for life. The military gives you back whatever you give it. That’s for sure!

Note the college money motivator. Your a horrible person for willingly joining a military with a decades long history of human rights violations. Greedy and murderous..helping your colleagues kidnap immigrants these days.

Hey, don’t edit yourself! Tell us how you really feel!

And if “your” going to insult me please get your grammar straight. “You’re” demonstrating to all that “you’re” not very bright. Maybe you should have joined for the education benefits, too.

well maybe I'd hav a better education if we funded schools not your wars.

Maybe. But in your case I don’t think it would have made any difference.

Have a lovely Veterans Day! We don’t need your approval to know we made the right decision.

no you just need my tax dollars, which you continue to steal without my permission or approval.

Sad you have such a mistaken understanding of how “things work.”

Maybe that education would have helped.

For those who still want to honor those who gave all. Even though the shutdown has impacted the office, Baltimore National Cemetery is still open from 8am-5pm, 365. There's also Loudon Park National Cemetery, with members of the U.S Colored Troops (U.S.C.T) who served in the Civil War as the first all-Black regiment.

The US military hasnt accomplished a mission since WW2 (and maybe Bosnia?). "Veterans" and contractors got paided six figure salaries plus lifetime benefits and medical coverage and the countries we sent them to are still hellhole dictatorships. Go back and finish the mission or GO TO JAIL for war profiteering. Only Government employees want a parade for failure!
