[QUOTE="KDM, post: 154853, member: 314"] Have you talked to any of these men?? These men you describe as "truly injured"? If you do, you will find that most, if not all of them, don't recognize "Categories" of sacrifice and neither do I. Some lost arms, some lost legs, some lost wives and families back home, some lost friends, and some even lost themselves. The only constant among all of us who went to foriegn soils to fight is that WE ALL LOST SOMETHING!!! At the very least, WE ALL lost time we could have been spending with family, friends, or just doing something else besides waging war. However, the one thing NONE of us must lose, is our honor and self respect as warfighters for our country. I would encourage you to NOT separate the sacrifices you and the rest of the vets made into varying degrees of importance. DO NOT let the Booger Eaters diminish your service. Just because they didn't shoot you or blow you up doesn't mean they weren't trying to. They just didn't get the chance or get around to you, because they sure wouldn't have hesitated if they had. Sorry! I get a bit preachy when it comes to this. [/QUOTE]
