ShootaRagHead:

keith4436, thank you for your service Brother! I am a disabled US Veteran and would do it again. I enjoyed my job and believed in what I did! I spent 17 years in Combat Search and Rescue Operations with AFSOC & JSOTF2. We rescued people of any nation being terrorized by another, children from war zones, etc. Most of it was never on the news so the whiny people in this forum that sit on their butt and couldn’t even clean a real firearm will never know.
YES doonwallaby, Veterans deserve to be recognized by their country. Most countries do not have a volunteer military… people are forced to serve in some with threats made to themselves or against their family. They go to war and do what they have to so they can come home to their families.
We cannot control with whom our government decides to go to war with, but we can do our best to fight with honor and return home to our families. So YES, the US, German, Korean, Vietnamese, etc are veterans that deserve recognition by the people of the country that sent them to do a job they may or may not have wanted to do.
Nobel83-9, you don’t have patriotism in your country? That is truly sad … your ancestors that fought to make your country what it is deserve some form of recognition. That is not just my opinion, but the opinion of over 200 countries world wide.
Happy Memorial day to all Veterans, whatever day it is celebrated in your country!

Thank you sir for a very prophetic post. And thank you for your heroic service that this nation owes a debt of gratitude and thank you for your sacrifices.

Thank you Sis. I am having a nice Memorial Day. I never claimed to be a hero, and I don’t think I am. The awards I received, most Vietnam vets did also, except for the Navy Unit Commendation with attached Citation letter from the Secretary of the Navy. This was the 3rd highest award the USS Kitty Hawk ever received, so it does mean more to me. In my opinion you are the finest example of a young person that this world has to offer. Imaginary or real, the person responsible or you(I think you are real) has to be of the highest caliber.

This is not about me. My country of ancestry is Palestine, it doesnt exist. It was invaded, occupied, and its lands further annexed to this day while it’s inhabitants are murdered, burned alive, terrorized, and isolated while the rest of the world calls them terrorists for resisting. But I digress. This forum is about BF1 don’t want some sad soul hijacking the forum because he is addicted to attention from strangers.

Side note: Memorial day is about those who died, not about the people who lived. Stop wishing veterans who lived a happy memorial day.

For once I kind of agree with you…

There are service veterans and war veterans.

Also, memorial day is about those who died, not the ones who lived. Stop it
