No I saw what the "point" of the post was... I get about one of these "inspirational" things a week emailed to me

My point is I'm a little sick of the manufactured and contrived nature of these "inspirational" messages designed to pull the heart strings and "support the troops". Personally I find it mostly BS, a nice and easy message to massage the ego and let people pat themselves on the back for "supporting the troops" simply by reading a message.
