Happy Veteran’s Day!

Today, there will be no ranting on this blog. No social criticism. No political analysis. Just a simple word of thanks. Thank you to all the men and women of the past and present who wear/have worn the uniform. From the troops planted in foxholes to the dude peeling potatoes on ship, thank you all for your service.

We tend to use the term “hero” so much that’s been watered down immensely. But if there ever was a such thing as a hero, you’re it.

    Hey Dre. Didn’t have anything specifically to say about this post (though I agree with 100%). I just wanted to stop by and say hello. I hope things are going OK: haven’t heard from you in a while.

    Take care, brother.

    Seconded. Hope things are well Dre.

    To the post, through war is inherently evil, the people who fight and sacrifice in it are usually not. I think it’s important for people to draw the distinctions. I pray that God’s hand will be keep soliders safe. It’s a shame they have to risk so much (on both sides, I might add) just to satisfy the agendas of a few greedy, stubborn men.
