Sorry, as a military family of 26 years and with an active duty son, it's been part of my history for almost 3 decades, starting with my own boot camp graduation.

Just because you have no Military background doesn't mean "we" all do not.

It's the sound of freedom, sweet and free. The people in those tanks and helicopters volunteered to do a dangerous job to protect America.

How that is threatening is beyond me.

You live in a bubble. I hope you understand that your views of military power is far removed from the average America walking down Main Street. While artillery down range may not bother you, and I can assure you it would rattle 95% of Americans if they heard it from their house. Same with tanks on Main Street.

I know. You want people to do America's "dirty work" and be neither seen nor heard. You want to pretend the people who would die for you don't even exist. Aren't you a peach?

As it turns out, my dad's retired army and my brother is retiring from the navy with 28 years served this year. I've also got lots of extended family including two other uncles with 20 years in. Even with these family ties I have extremely limited contact with the military. My family chose their jobs and they loved doing them, but it still doesn't mean I have to go out of my way to connect with the military community. They almost never discuss work with me.

And, you called it dirty work, not me

What do you call it?

The job the volunteered to do. For my brother, a medic, it's his passion. That's what I call it.

How does your brother define his Service?

NP here:
My family is special forces - the epitome of "dirty work," to this day fighting the worst of America's enemy in brutal raids. They leave home with 48 hour notice and return sometimes a week or a month later, not able to discuss where they went.

While we all hunt and own firearms, they don't feel the need to flaunt weapons. They use them daily to prepare for combat and then kill others. It's a sacred and ominous responsibility. Only those who feel they need to prove something would advocate rolling tanks down Pennsylvania Avenue; it projects insecure weakness, not strength.
