[quote=Anonymous]I go to a military center to get my medical care. Not only did the fact that we were at war (still are, - soon to be authorized per Obama's request to Congress ) not make a blip, but the injured will be a generation that lives with this the rest of their lives. Many are so young, there with their wives, girlfriends, babies or just their moms at their sides because they are babies themselves. I cannot convey to you what they have given - legs, scars, invisible wounds, no arms sometimes all of those. I am not sure they are asking for because it is so hard to know the appropriate way to respond interact besides as a nation give support for healing and recognition that they answered a call this country put to them. This movie went a little way to recognizing the horror, choices, burden and yes, pride in service which in the military is first and foremost to the buddy at your side. Your comments dont just come off anti Chris Kyle but really besmirching all these soldiers who deserve a little recognition and appreciation for what they and their families went through. Not to be called meatheads and stupid. How can you possibly be that nasty about human beings who sign their name on the dotted line and go where our president ( the president I assume you voted for ) orders and do the best job they can to fulfill the mission and protect the person next to them. The idea that it is self grandizing to talk about it is ridiculous. I wish more books were written with multiple perspectives so we can put together the big picture and remember america has been involved in her longest war and real people were involved. Whether happy, sad, defeated, excited, diaries, journals, poems, fiction, song - those who served have the right to comment and tell the story as much as every other American.[/quote]
