Sadly, Phoenix, this si what happens to vets in this country. Ironically, Veterans is a group u want to keep happy. Hitler came to power because of
very unhappy and mistreated world war 1 vets helped him rise. America almost had a fascist coup from a group of disgruntled vets.
Timmy mC Veigh and the DC sniper were both war vets.
And our govornemnt wonders why so many vets become anto gov, paranoid, ect?
After spending our militayr years getting sent to foreign #hole coutnries that dont want us, taking abuse, putting our lives on the line for some rich
biys interest, being used as human test subjects for the most assinine and dangerous of experiments, being deliberately and callously exposed to
deadly chemicals, dealing with internal violence in our ranks, lousy stadards of living, no assistance or cool of time to make the transition into
civilian life, and little support when we do get out........
And now when we get old, we no longer will have anyone to treat our service related conditions.
sigh.
