This is a thank you thread, not a debate thread or a thread to criticise soldiers or the regimes they fight for. If you do not heed this warning retribution will be swift and without mercy! |

People who make a living killing people deserve no memorial day but I' thank the soldiers, of all sides, for doing what they do. Nations will always fight nations and I'm glad there are plenty of morons who can go to war and die in place of the teachers, scientists and in place of those who care for elderly and the sick.
You don't think there are teachers and scientists in the military? You don't think soldiers care about the sick and elderly? You think soldiers just make a living killing people? Most soldiers don't even fire a gun in active combat. But they do a dangerous job that most people would never want to do, far away from the comfort and safety of home.
Disrespect the dead on the day reserved for their memory.
Stay classy, bro.

Use the PM for stuff off topic in the future.
Glad that most of the politics bashing in the thread is over with. Cousin is heading over to Kuwait in July and then heading to Afghanistan from there shortly afterward.
Thanks to all the soldiers. I don't support most wars but I'll support you. <3

Thank you. And thanks to all the others out there.

Thanks to the soldiers who constantly put themselves in harm's way to ensure the protection of us, and all we hold dear.

Thanks to people who make sacrifices for others.

I understand all the criticism of memorial day since almost every other profession makes the world a better place, whereas half of all soldiers do not. That still leaves another half which go through hell to make the world a better place.

Defending their country from what? From Americans trying to setup a stable, peaceful government so they can leave? Saying American soldiers ideals are less than the Taliban, Al Qaeda, and Iraqi revolutionaries seems pretty dumb to me I don't know how anyone could read what they fight for and have more respect for them.

Thank you, soldiers, on all sides of all conflicts, who put everything you are on the line for a greater cause.
Damn you to whatever eternal torment any religion can imagine, you who use these soldiers to advance your own personal agendas.

Thank you soldiers and RIP. It's disheartening to see the ages of soldiers who have died. So many young men and women...

RIP to those who lost their lives in the first and second world war. Thank you to those who made it back home and those, who didn't.

Thank you a lot for that and I may say thanks to you aswell by all the people who can't thank you anymore because M4A1 owned them.

Thank you, brave peacekeepers.

Thank you to these individuals who risk their lives each and every day for what they believe in. It really can remind all of us how little we are going through comparatively, as well as how much we take for granted in our lives. It reminded me just of how lucky I am to be where I am. I can complain about studying and academics, and not even get started working on it all, but there are people out there who could get killed or changed beyond belief in the battlefield. It's the least we can do to take the time out to thank them and to take advantage of what we're lucky enough to have.
Thank you so much.

RIP to all those who served past and present. I have so much respect for those who go into harms way for their country.

thank you for the freedoms we have today.

You're welcome. 6 year veteran that was medically discharged about a month ago.

As a person that believes that not everything can be solved peacefully and that there are those who believe in might makes right that every society needs those who will protect us and our beliefs. So to those who severed/serving your country should be proud of your service.

Thank you all. You're the reason that we are subject to bombing raids, and the reason that our country isn't a warzone. I do not like the political motives for war, but putting your lives on the line for any cause to protect american citizens is arguably the most noble act one can do.

God bless those who have served and died
