Re: [MBZ] Veterans on the List
Wilton, I am respectful and appreciative of all who have served, especially in political wars such as Viet Nam. I was lucky. I was in college and sitting in the student union when the draft lottery was taken for all the birthdays. My numbered was 332, my older brother was 289, and my oldest brother was no longer in physical condition for active duty (he was Army reserve). I watched guys crying because their numbers were low and they knew they were going. I took the offer of 1A for 6 months and then they put me in a pool which meant there would be all out WWIII before I would be called. In my opinion, and it's just mine, WWII was the last foreign war that the USA should have been involved in. If someone were attacking the USA, I'd gladly pick up my guns and go kill them. And I say kill them because that's what guns do and that's what I'd do if I had to pick up my guns. Again, with deep respect, thanks to all who have served.

Re: [MBZ] Veterans on the List
I join Wilton in that assessment. Seems to me, WW2 was the last war America fought to win. All since have been police actions . I've always had serious heart burn about being the worlds policemen, on our tax nickle. WW2 is also the last war the Generals ran... all since have been run by politicians and news media driven public opinion. Another set of heart burns for me. All said... myself included... some member or members of my family have been present in uniform at every dustup America has been in since 1776. Grant...
