Last time I looked the reason we soldiers signed up to an all volunteer service was so we could SERVE our country and PROTECT the people who live in it. I was not aware that being a veteran gave anyone the right to lay general disrespect on everyone else. I was not aware that garbage mouth was the hallmark of one who had seen real action. I was not aware that getting shot at was the ONLY way one could serve his country. What exactly gives you the right to come off like a holier than thou bigot? Do you think you are the only soldier who has seen combat. Or, do you believe all soldiers always perform courageously and honorably and all civilians are wastes of skin? Just for the record, when I was earning my spurs the hard way a high percentage of the officers I served with when forward deployed were college educated Fraternity men.
When I got back and returned to law school I was surprised but very pleased to see how many of my fellow students were fraternity men and combat veterans. And, also just for the record, I paid my dues resulting in some letters you should recognize:
SS, BS'V' and OLC, PH, ACM'V' and OLC, ABN, plus all the other 'been there buttons' and REMF medals.
I am damned proud of my service in the regular army and I stay qualified in the USAR but I sure as hell don't believe in cheapening my service by using it as a bully pulpit.
