[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be uncomfortable with my spouse marching in this sort of parade.  I don't mind a formation or a welcome home or a ticker tape parade, but this sort of show/review seems odd to me. Trump may mean it respectfully but it does come across as vain glorious and about him, not the warriors. - spouse who is neither for or against but rather bemused by Trump [/quote]

How does your spouse feel?   It was your spouse who swore an oath to the United States; you are simply a dependent [/quote]

I'm going to ignore the hurt your words caused me, given the amount that my children and I  have invested in supporting my spouse in following his dream, to serve our nation militarily. However, I agree with you. I am clearly speaking about my feelings and am curious what my spouse thinks. He is away from home (shocking) but I'll let you know what I hear back. I'm always curious if he has a different perspective and it would be interesting to know. If he changes my mind, I'm open to it. BTW I would love for there to be a veterans parade in DC for the last ten years of war.  However, my read is that this parade is a show of military might, not that recognition. My father always said the best brands don't advertise, and I think of our military in that way. The people who need to see our hardware and finesse , the enemy, will see it for a moment.  Again, I am not against educating the public about the military, welcome home parades and specific tours and shows of tech-but a massive show of hardware and troops down mass Ave.  Seems sort of odd to me. Do you think the American people require this review, and if so why? Also, how would it bolster the military mission?  I am receptive if you have a view that differs from mine. [/quote]
