Happy Veterans Day to all.
Thank you Vet’s for your service, your sacrifice, and for answering that call of duty!
If you can read this, thank a teacher; If you can read this in english, thank a Vet!
Peace–through well placed shots
We’re working on a solution.
“Peace–through well placed shots”
Only a fanatic could disrespect our veterans and troops in such as way. Why not thank our armed forces for their sacrifices rather than insult them with your ignorance.
Indeed daisycutter, indeed.
As one Vet who still had both arms and both legs and a hide only slightly scarred when I hung up my uniform for the last time almost a decade ago, I would ask us to also keep in mind those men and women that are still out there, dodging sharp pieces of hypersonic metal far from home, with our flag on their sleeves.
Go put your head back in the sand SAW.
The first quote I happened to get from an active duty soldier, and the signoff; it’s (my own little thing) and also a statement of fact, proven through history. Guess you don’t get it, or don’t like that its so direct.
By the way “still at war”, lighten up. Daisycutter might be trying to be funny, but there is a lot of truth in that little quip. Personnally I believe it is the best strategy for winning the War on Terror. Here’s another one from another war:
“KEEP UP THE FIRE!”
SAW-get a sense of humor!!!
In my military service, we believed in “Peace through superior firepower.” The Romans expressed the same thought “If you want peace, prepare for war.” Here’s to you daisycutter. If it weren’t for our veterans, today’s anti-war zealots would be studying German and Japanese so they could beg their concentration camp guards for a crust of bread.
Honor to all Veterans on this Veterans Day
Honor to every woman and man who has served and is serving this country in the Marine Corps, Navy, Army and Air Force.
Happy Birthday to my fellow Marines.
Marine Corps was founded Nov. 10, 1775, just before we became a country.
There are no ex Marines or former Marines. We are still Marines, just not on active duty.
My college student son asked me, “Did you know about the protests while you were in Viet Nam?” Yes, but it didn’t matter. We fight when and
where we are ordered, trusting our leaders. He didn’t ask me if it was misplaced trust. Smart boy. He did remember that I wear a small brass
“V” on my leather flight jacket collar. “You told me it’s a Combat V for valor and that you wear it for all the warriors who didn’t come back from Viet Nam.” That’s true son.
Hey Alva, keep working on it. Typekey seems to work so what’s the problem?
Voyageur – Well said my friend, well said.
Daisycutter’s comments may be in somewhat poor taste, as is his/her sign-in name which can be either a very large bomb used to make LZs or a particularly nasty kind of land mine akin to a Bouncing Betty. Anyway, Daisy is right, peace (or survival) through well placed shots. I’m alive today because a couple of Navy A-4s dropped napalm on some Vietnamese who wanted to kill me and the rest of my outfit. A miserable way to die but is there a good way in war? I think the best thing to do today is remember that peace through strength works, that we are, for the most part, honorable people and we should support John McCain’s efforts for more troops in Iraq to win, whatever winning is over there, and get out and to renounce torture of our enemies.
Beth,
War must be just one big running joke to you. Can you hang up the politics even for one day to say thanks to our veterans?
Thank you to all those that actually served.
Why do we ?ll, seeing of a soldier, bless him?
ColoPols changed their comment on today’s open thread >> guess they forgot today was Veteran’s Day..psst psst.
This Veteran’s day I want to publicly give thanks to my grandfather, who served as an army medic in Germany in World War II and received two silver stars and a purple heart.
A few times when one of my brothers, cousins or I, his grandkids, got some sort of huge cut that needed stitches while running around his house he would get out his medical kit and just start sewing us up ( no anesthetic, mind you).
It hurt like hell but it saved all the money and time of the emergency room, and he knew what he was doing. Later on as adults my brothers and I just kind of realized how tough this man really was.
We joked about it a lot but we also wondered what kind of horrible things he had seen in wartime to consider sewing two pieces of skin back together in the kitchen as just an every day deal. He passed away over 15 years ago but I still think about it, and him, a lot to this day.
Thank god we live in this country. Thank god we are free to bitch and gripe at each other about politics.
Happy Veteran’s Day to everybody at ColoradoPols, Dems, R’s, I’s, and the like…
Daisycutter, from the urgent reply and justification to a an insult for an inappropriate statement on veterans day, you must not know the likes the war. I served, and honor those who still serve. Personal experience is not everything, but it opened more to the thought of peace through negotiation, cooperation and the democratic method, rather than a rush to point and shoot. Honor our vets and troops, but do not follow blindly out ignorance.
SAW – Quick reply? I’m either on the board and reading comments or not.
You must not be here that much, or you didn’t do your homework. If you did, you’d see that I’m a vet as well; Desert Storm era.
