Veteran’s Day: Celebrate!

As Veteran’s Day comes our way, time to honor and pray for our troops in the way of danger. Last term, one of my best students re-upped to serve in Afghanistan. Last I saw of him, he was headed out the door to catch a plane. If there’s a God, may She keep them safe.

And, lest you’re young enough to wonder if America ever was involved in a just war, take some time to read this.

  1. I am a NAVY veteran 1969- 1975 and in my honest opinion we are just pouring money and lives into Afghanistan.

    They a fighting a war where they still after 8 years don’t understand the culture of the people they are dealing with.

    Plus they are dealing with a corrupt government.

    On top of that, they the afgans don’t want us there.

    Nation building? Forget it. They are Muslim. Their religion is their government.

  2. Cool, now we have Gene Simmons the KISS guy doing a military tribute.

    Hats off to him. I’d rather listen to the outlaws.

    On the other paw I spent days neck deep in water waiting to POP someone in Vietnam.

    Wonder if Gene wants to go swim with me…
