To: Tired of Taxes

My memory is that she is bland and accepting, if you ask her, directly did you fight, she will easily and openly tell you no, but on the other hand, if you don’t ask her and give her a parade for heroism, then she will accept that too. She seems to be not knowledgeable of and is unaware of the history and emotion and honor and so on that is connected to war events.

I can see your point: Sometimes the wrong people receive all the accolades. I haven’t followed this story, so I don’t know much about the POWs in this case. But, I wouldn’t blame any of them for accepting a pat on the back after being a POW. I’m not over there; they are. I’ve never served. (I’m a woman myself, btw.)

My only argument would be against the military or the people in power spreading a false story like they did in this case.
