Icon14 To all our troops, past and present, THANK YOU

I was on a navy warship "wasp" and was privileged to have met many that fight for our country. So many had just come back from Iraq, and many were on there way. I was able to talk to solders that let me in to the grim reality they live when there over there. My Thoughts? We take all of them for granted, they fight and give their lives for our freedom, and the worlds security. I simply want to express my support for all of them that fight so hard and are the real heroes of this world.
Thank You and may God's strength be with you.

PS, no more post about freedom and Iraq, because this post is also respect to vets in wars like WW2, and dont tell me that wasnt about freedom.
hence Memorial Day

AMen man!
Thanks to all the Men and women who serve and heartfelt thank you to all that died in service. We remember them and their sacrifice give meaning to our freedom. We apologize for the abuses of the freedom that your sacrifice lets us keep. Thank you very much. Memorial day is for you. Even today, I had to work, but I work where I want in a job that i like, why? cause of the People in uniform that died so I have the freedom to work in the type of job I like.
Thank you

WOW, you are a true POS, the troops did not make the choice to go to Iraq, they just go because they have to. And I also ment respect to all or vets, like WW2. not for your freedom huh?? everyone can have an opinion, I just think yours makes no sense and really, really sucks. Its Memorial Day and you post that shit. you make me sick

They protect your freedom by volunteering so that president bush didn't draft your ass into combat, justified war or no.

Unless you're not American, that is. In which case you should have known this thread doesn't much apply to you.
