    Stop with the greatest generation stuff.. if the colonial militia had not dropped their pitchforks they're printing presses and picked up their rifles assembled on the battlefield to fight a uniformed British military there would be no America.. they stood 20 and 30 yards apart and took aim and fired at each other while cannonballs flew out their bodies. Each generation has demonstrated great courage

    AS A CIVILIAN DAUGHTER OF FORMER MARINE SARGENT & 82CD AIRBORNE PARATROOPER KERMIT B. SNEAD, I WATCHED MY FATHER LOSE HIS LEGS TO DIABETES & HEART DISEASE. I CHOSE TO BE HIS CAREGIVER & CHANGED HIS DIAPERS; I SNAPPED HIS PROSTHESISES ON BOTH LEGS EVERYDAY & PULLED HIM OUT OF BED BY HIS BIB OVERALL STRAPS AS I WATCHED HIM USE HIS WALKER TO GET IN HIS POWER CHAIR; I PERFORMED CPR ON HIM THE DAY HE DIED. WE CIVILIANS SIT IN THE SHADOWS AT 2:30 AM CRYING OUT TO GOD, REALIZING IT ALL TOO WELL & WILL GLADLY DO IT AGAIN FOR ANY VETERAN. GOD BLESS ALL VETERANS. SHALOM ALEICHEM.
