The ivy’s im sure had a few. But they weren’t exactly the soldier factories you imply. And today ivy participation is nearly unknown. But the ivy’s do contribute most of our red white and blue national leaders... who often excitedly point the cannon at you.
Nobody watched it.
Fine day in the heart of Dixie, gun shop owner disses VETERANS! SAY GOODBYE TO YOUR BUSINESS FOOL! DEEDING IT TO YOUR WIFE WON’T SAVE IT!
Alabamian’s anti-veterans rant lands him in serious hot water - Yellowhammer News

Poster #1 got it right.
Springsteen is no patriot.
So many other fine, patriotic performers available.
Agreed. What Mensa decided inviting that overrated, grimacing tool to perform his third rate bilge for our veterans was a good idea?
I can see your point about soldiers who were drafted and fought during Vietnam while some got a pass. That’s not the case with the military of this era. I, for one, would not bother to watch anything about ‘valor’ from HBO which included Springsteen or M&M. Anyone who could not see what that was going to be about are about as astute as Obama voters.
Springsteen is a communist skunk, plain and simple.
I don’t disagree about Springsteen, or the differences between the draft and volunteer military. I stopped watching all these celebrations on the mall shows years ago, they have become love fests for the out of work leftie celebrities.
Yours is a good point. I spent 20 years in the AF but the motivation for enlisting was a draft lottery number of 11.
