When I returned from Vietnam at 21 years old I learned a valuable life lesson. The politicians that sent me there wanted nothing to do with me when I came home.
I went back to college while my friends were graduating. People often say war changes you. What they don’t often understand is that the way they treat veterans changes them, too.

One of the greatest tragedies is that this man saved countless lives, only to lose his life to a man he was trying to help here at home. Broke my heart the day I read he was killed by a fellow retired serviceman.

Luckily, the kid grew some sense, gave up, and convinced his mom to leave.

Friend of mine told me a story once, of how he was on patrol and see a kid and his father who I guess was laying on the ground, and the kid was freaking out like something was wrong with his dad, he goes to check on both of them and I guess the kid attacked him from behind and stabbed him a few times and he had to put both of them down, for a while it took me a while to actually comprehend that he literally had to kill a child to save his own life..what a fucking horrible situation to be in man..thank you to all the vets and everyone who still serves. I really don't think some people understand how fucked things get on the other side.

Politicians send them over there and then judge them when they come back. Blood is on the Politicians hands.

“War doesn’t determine who is right but who is left.“
- Winston Churchill

[Jamezy]

imagine being in a war, killing an enemy only to come home and be put on trial for murder by the same politicians that sent you there...

[alphasky]

Government asks 18 year old youth to do their dirty work, then don't offer the HELP or resources veterans of war need. The benefits for serving your country are worth shit. But I'm glad that politicians, executives, and snobs who steal people's money go up to veterans and say "thank you foe your service" so that they can feel good about themselves.

My uncle was a marine in the korean war. Back in the 80's we had cook outside at his house. We had a lot of WW 2 and korean vets then. My uncle was the nicest, gentlest man you would ever meet. I started hanging around him and his buddies when I was just a kid. I remember alot of the war stories. I dont know how many people my uncle killed in that war but I knew it was alot and some of them were children. He told me kids would Suicide themselves by putting a bomb in a shoe shine box try to sell a shine job to a G.I. and if the G.I. agreed the kid would open the box and the bomb would go off killing them both. Once he was liquored up really good he said he was in a fire fight and 2 kids were charging him with rifles with bayonets he popped them both. He said the rifles were taller than the kids. He was having a real hard time talking about it and it was the only time I seen the man cry. I could'nt even imagine how horrible that was.

One of the coldest lines I've heard is: I get medals for killing over your beef and prison for killing over mine.

Edit: It's been brought to my attention that the line is "Everybody has enemies, I get hailed for killing yours and jailed for killing mine"
