"Ah Seattle. ...Home of the 'American Chicken'." Like this guy? Friend of the family and Seattleite. Of course, he isn't wearing his MOH in this shot. You probably aren't aware, but the Washington state has more retired military personel per capita than any other state.

Toward the end of the war, Dad was working in the Bremerton Navy Yard. Family lore is that as an infant, I was cradled in your friend’s arms.

Granted on the "old war heros thing". Every state has heros from WWII, Korea, and Vietnam.

My comment pertains to the average young liberal in Seattle now, who could care less about your old war heros or what they sacrificed for them.

It sounds as if these veterans should be more active in local politics to curb the abuses of leftist wackos on the school boards.

...Washington state has more retired military personel (sic) per capita than any other state.

Then they need to become far more vocal because right now it looks like the loonies are running the farm up there.
