if the oppurtunity presents itself today.... walk up to a serving / past soldier. and tell him/her THANK-YOU,
they dont realize the service they are doing for all of us. to most of them it's just a job.
allthough me myself am a veteran i didnt see no combat situations. in my eyes the ones who fired or got fired at.. those are the real veterans,
to me it was just a job. allthough i know that could have changed very quicklly. when i was in germany in 1990. we went on full alert for 2 weeks when the first pres. bush invaded IRAQ. we were ready to go at a moments notice, and i was in a CHEMICAL company and he had chemical weapons. but we were never deployed,
reality hit real fast when the weapons sgt. passed out live ammo to each soldier,
in my current field of work i doubt i'll have the chance to thank a soldier today, but perhaps i'll grab the c.b. mic and start a conversation with my fellow truck drivers today. and as a unit im sure we can thank a lot of them verbally without even seeing them.
