Please don't argue, just look, listen and appreciate your life...

If you have access to the military/history channel ( or your local equivalent )
...take a moment to watch one of the programs and then think about how much has been sacrificed throughout history, so that you can be... Whoever your are... And do, whatever you do... under the banner of freedom!!!

Yer, I know " what a stupid, sappy bastard"...

So what... Say what you like! Everyday, I appreciate what they did, friend and foe, believing in their cause...
My uncle was killed 14th April, 1945, aged 24... Buried in Becklingen War Cemetary. My dad never got over it... Just like millions of others...

But, when I read some of the vitriol and personal attacks over a $50, 21st century toy for boys, well, You show your true colors/colours...

Get real!

Imagine, putting you lot in the same room, with a few free beers... By the end of the night I know damn well, you would all be slapping each other on the back, and the best of friends... Even the guys who did it for real get together still... what's left of them... They would frown on the attitudes in here, I'm sure...

Enjoy the life your mother's gifted you! I bet you've all seen the end of 'Saving Private Ryan'? If any of you don't find that emotional, then you are primed to tear this thread apart... Go on, do it!
But, at least I respect the the guys who fought and died so you can!

It takes a sane man to kill for the right cause, it takes an insane man to kill, because he can...


Hit me!

And yes, I'm self-righteous bastard!

And many other things as we're about to find out!
