They made no qualms about expressing it, maybe one day I can write a book with my dead brothers thoughts , based on his letters he believed in this country.

His memory is being erased, no one cares anymore, just how many boys we can kill next so we can say we kicked someones ass.

Enlist or shut up, about what should be done....

War hurts real people. It is seen as a driver of industry, and a good thing for many, but I only stated what I did to point out that rich mens wars only hurt the poor.

Bring back the draft, no college exemptions like Vietnam, let the richies die like the proles, see how war happy we are then.

All for one and one for all...LOL yeah right.
Words seem so empty and meaningless don't they? All lofty rhetorical BS maybe? There are some things I would like to express, but I don't think it would help any. The last I wore a uniform was ages ago, but some things I have never forgotten and most will never understand until they experience some kind of loss, hardship or sacrifice.
