Most these dudes are dusty cats with nothing going in life so they get a BS job working in an office or kitchen or doing security forces or some crap. People act is if every dude you see in uniform is on the grounds killing terrorist. Lot of these dudes over seas tricking your tax dollars off on whores. I always noticed old Military cats from WW2,Vietnam, and the Korean war always check these young military dudes asking them their rank and what they do before they show em love.
I know tons of dusty Military cats who don't do jack, so when ever I see dudes in uniform, I show them respect as humans yes, but I don't treat them as if they are special being that they choose to go to the military because honestly it is a very small minority "fighting for our freedom"
