What I find more annoying is veterans who think they are owed something or should be treated different just because they served. If you want to acknowledge and thank me for serving or get a discount somewhere, fine but I don't expect nor think I'm owed it.
Never thought to even consider what other Veterans felt towards other Veterans... I see people holding signs all the time homeless veteran.. I honestly think to myself sometimes, wonder if they are a veteran. This may be the dumbest question EVER but are there Veterans more qualified to be Veterans than others? Is there a period of time you must be enrolled to be considered a Veteran?
***NOTE to posters.... this thread was not started to take away anything from Veterans it is more to do with the Corporate/Patriotic Money Making type of SUPPORT THE TROOPS!.. etc.. If we truly were supporting them why the VA such a mess and why isnt there more focus on mental illness etc.. I would like to know what percentage of Money actually goes toward those who are in need or those who govern over the organization that is promoting Support the TROOPS ETC.. Fred Nailed it.. in previous post.. And to Crispy Thanks!!
