I just was watching 60 minutes. We lost 97 good soldiers. sons and daughters, mothers and fathers. I hope they appreciate the scarfice we made.

I appreciate it.

...I do, too......and I am sure they appreciate it as well.

The young men and women who serve our country know that this might happen to them when they enlist. They still choose, however, to serve our country.

Can someone explain something to me -- cause I do not understand it; why do people seem to think you can enter the military, get paid, receive a free education, get a pension (and all the other perks that go along with it), and then complain when they are asked to eventually do their job?? Do they think they would get a free ride and never have to fight??

Their job is warfare -- not practicing warfare, but actual warfare.

They deserve everything they get, (I am as patriotic as the come)but they must understand the risks when they got into it --- they get the benefits, and unfortunatley some have to pay a very high price for that.

Maybe it's just me......:confused:
