Most veterans I know really think we should stay the course. I admit I haven't spoken to as many veterans of the War on Terror, but the Vietnam era vets I am close to want us to get out of there in a way that we didn't back in the 70s. Vietnamization was kind of a joke, and then we just left all of Southeast Asia to collapse.

Why you gotta bring morals into this, huh?
