...aside from this if there was a legitimate reason to fight a war and I was in it I would not feel that I need anyone to recognize my efforts, the reward would be the outcome of peace that was achieved the best payback would be for people to live as free and normal life as possible...

There's a problem in there Westy. Most of those riders weren't merely "ignored" they were spit on, derided, insulted, and disrespected all because of a few bad seeds in Vietnam. Much like the way a large portion of the Sift regard police.
And no, I honestly don't believe you would think that the "job is the reward" if you had gone through it yourself.


I didn't know people were spiting on them and what have you and obvously thats stupid for them to do that.


my comment was not about that it was about what was directly visible in the video and peoples blind patratisum and non pragmatic apreach.

well if i was drafted to fight in Vietnam i would be resentful of the government and would have been one of the Manny people to desert to another country, if we wer at war for lagitamte reasons and i was drafted i cetranly would not want to attend a paraid like this and i would not want or exspect people to ohnor or respect me anny more than they should ohnor and respect everyone.



As i said i would want the goverment to treat vterns properly with the right suport and have money put into education and teaching of history to reduce the likelihood of wars happening in the future that would be far more rewarding and befiting of friends i would have lost than some , token paraid.



My view of current troops and vetrens is that im against what they do as a job but i recognize allot of them are forced into the job and i would support them ( not in the killing) but in being nice to them as people and recognizing that they have sufferd allot of emotional truma.
