Headbutt Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Very important day. God bless all of you veterans. I didn't serve but I grew up as an Air Force brat.. My Dad served, my sister served, my oldest son served, and my youngest son is currently in some post in the Afghanistan desert, Somewhere, he won't and claims he can't, tell me exactly. He's not alone. Please pray for these folks. Every day I meet a guy with a "Vietnam Vet" on his hat, every day I try to find a way to thank that guy. I buy them coffee, sometimes I get to buy them a lunch. God bless these guys, but please don't restrict it to one day a year. Pay for their dinner, buy them a beer, or just shake their hand. They earned it. To those on this site that have served, and I know that it's a lot of you, THANK YOU!! I appreciate your sacrifice. If nothing else I've learned what the army pays and what you give for that dollar. It's embarrassing. That's just for hanging out and doing a day job. Going to war for that kind of money just reflects on the quality of the men and women who serve and their values. Did I say THANK YOU!! already? Don't just thank a vet on Veterans Day today, hug a vet and thank them for your freedom. Thank you VETS!!!!!!! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelawlorfaithful Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 All of the above. And go quaff some root beers at Bill Mauldin’s house, you’ve earned it and so much more.

Right, because we had no interests in WWI, WW2 or Afghanistan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the President sends Americans to fight in wars it automatically enters the realm of "U.S. interests," regardless of your political or moral ideology. If you don't understand that you're pretty worthless as an American. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Extra Mayo Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Afghanistan was justified. The only thing we did wrong there was not razing the entire country. Both Irak wars were total BS (I was in during first one.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You put a billion or so in Dick Cheney's pocket through his Halliburton windfall though.

carbonpoke Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 I'm a vet. Thanks for the thanks. I try to get a different message out there on veterans day. If you know a vet or a armed forces member who is having difficulty with general life activities, relationships, drinking to much, uncontrollable anxiety and panic attacks, nightmares, waking from sleep crying, doesn't want to talk about their issues... Tell them that they should go to the VA mental health walk in service. It probably saved my life, or at least extended it. PTSD is no effing joke, and it can progress. But just learning that you have it, no matter how trivial your military stress experience feels too you, get in there and talk to an expert. I sleep better, my wife thinks I'm normal again. I like doing things again in public, family stuff. It's an ongoing battle. I never would have went in for help until another vet called me and explained things that were happening to him. That's when I knew it wasn't just me... It wasn't localized. I will explain the turning point for me, after I had spoke with my army buddy. I was at work at my civilian job. It was morning, 730ish. I was trying to sign some paperwork... But I couldn't. I looked down and my hands were trembling so bad I couldn't hold the pen. I almost passed out. Same thing happened to my buddy. There were lots of signs before that. Nightmares, all the problems I listed above. And im serious, if your friends are hurting, get them to the nearest VA hospital to the mental health walk in service. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carbonpoke Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 And another thing, I hate veterans day. It's a time of reflection, and it's not easy. I imagine many vets don't like it either, so holidays are a tough time. I've spent many a holiday in the emergency room. Symptoms like I'm having a heart attack, I'm gonna die. Total freak out. I just want you guys to recognize it, so that you help. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
