that is true enough, the army isn't all about killing.

As for the support our troops. I would probably have ribbons and such as: wishing safety, a safe return, etc..

Supporting, in my mind, implies that I aggree with why they are there. A bit odd maybe, but It is how I take. But I do have nothing wrong with people showing thier support.. I just do it my way.



Btw I didn't put this in my last post, but I don't think of the animal rescue people as heros or extraordinary just good people, so in my mind you must at least surpass that. I actually consider them mostly normal. I am a selfish kid, and I can recognize it, I do give time and money, but not as much as I could, I still look out for number 1 first, then maybe if I feel like I will do what I can for them.

Which is why I don't veiw this as bashing, I ain't trying to put them beneth my lvl, many are likely above my lvl, they just aren't at the level of hero or extraordinary in my mind.
