RE: Triggering the Troops

So why did you join hero?

I joined because I graduated high school and was in a dead-end job in 1979. I transferred to the Marine Corps shortly later because of the Iran thing in those days. Besides not one Veteran responding to this post which defames Veterans has used the term hero except you!

I would find it very difficult to find a Vet that would be comfortable being called a hero. Oh yes, there are some. One in every crowd. Normally sit in the canteen at the Legion and talk about everything they did and find out they are just affiliate members whose highest rank was Tenderfoot in the Boy Scouts. We all know the type.

Sort:  

I was duped by a copsucker upbringing.

Wasn't heroes the theme of the post?
We ride for free because we served?

I'm real disappointed that the dad i got bought into the paradigm and misled me for too many years.
He went to his grave mad at me for bucking up against my oppression.

I still struggle to free myself from that indoctrination.

It's a shame on our civilization that war still exists.
Imo.

We can do better than kill each other because,... politics.

You're on the list now. I probably issued the first follow command through my bot and it didn't take, my bad on that one. Fixed.
