[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an air force brat.  One of the things I remember as a young child is attending military events where they had parades and such.  It was quite inspiring.  Then, when my son finished boot camp, I was overwhelmed with pride as the soldiers marched onto the field.  
For me, there is something deeply moving when watching a military march.  Watching our military with such precision and discipline is impressive.  
Since less than half of one percent of our population is active military, not everyone has had the opportunity to witness a military parade in person.  It stirs patriotism in people.  
Perhaps this is what Trump is hoping to invoke in our citizens - a sense of patriotism - non partisan patriotism.  [/quote]

Very few people in America have any contact with the Military.

Why should we? It's volunteer. I chose a different path for my life. I also have very little contact with police, doctors, politicians, garbage collectors, etc. why should I go out of my way to connect with any specific profession? [/quote]
