I'm sorry to say a lot of people don't respect our military anymore.

respect for those who fight for their country regardless what side, we all have our beliefs

 The reason I think people don't care much about the military is that they don't value freedom very much. Back in WW1, WW2, and Korea we were all happy to fight and die for other people's freedom. Now (and I think ever since Vietnam) people are jumping to give up freedom for a handout in welfare programs like socialized healthcare, public schools, public transit, Libraries, and social security. It's disgusting how much freedom we lost in the last 80 years.

I respect soldiers too. Not just because they have guns, though. Practically all the kids like them because they have guns.  :P

That was the top comment. Cheater.

Oh, Ian brought up another point that I'd like to make. A soldier is in the Army, a sailor in the Navy, an Airman in the Air Force, and a Marine in the Marine Corps. Because they all think they are better than each other (particularly the Marine Corps) they take it as an insult to be misaddressed in a generalized fashion as soldier. I know one Marine specifically who was court marshaled for an act of violence on a man who called him a soldier.

Oops. I forgot about that.  :-\

you dont become a soldier or whatever you maybe be called for the title, you join for defending the country you love.

 I know, but Marines have earned the title Marine, the title that will stay with them until they are burred in the front leaning rest. It holds more weight and value than "Soldier", "Airman", or "Sailor".

looollloolllolll don't you feel stupid.

Ian2424

That's what I think too :o. This is kinda off-topic, but it surprises me that celebrities are more respected than the people who fight for the. U.S and other countries. :-\

 Yea, it pisses me off when people call Tom Brady a hero but don't know who John Basilone is.

Pippin

yeah its strange, but the celebrities are few and far between compared to the amount of soldiers and they are far more publicized
