So what did you do for this country? Got roaring drunk on weekends, ran a few miles each week, watched paint dry?
Or maybe you were part of the brass? Tried to play the political game to get ahead?
The ones who actually did shit aren't here to post about it.... 
You're right. The REAL patriots aren't here to post. They've already paid the price for flawed American foreign policy.
But if they were still alive you'd just mock them too.
As far as what I did. Twelve years in Navy. Did I get drunk on weekends? Hell yes. Did I deploy when ordered and do my job. Yep.
But at least I know what it means to serve and have the respect of others that served and deployed with me. That's something you'll never be able to understand.
