The last Saturday in June has been deemed by the UK Government as Armed Forces Day. It’s the one day a year that they can say they care about the UK Armed Forces and its Veterans, as opposed to the other 364 days in the year when they do not.
That's sad, but there are people in the USA who would like to see our armed forces abolished. They don't understand the term Freedom isn't Free and all that it means. Lovely shot!
Oh my. I have never understood why Veterans are not revered and honored for their service, every day. I thought just America had this problem. Thank you for your service, Phil! It’s an honor to know you.
There are sad stories, but not all veterans end up with nothing. It’s usually those that have been injured or that have suffered with PTSD, they could be better looked after.
It's the same thing here in Canada.
There would be no freedom of the press if it weren't bought and paid for by our military.
