Despite all the red T-shirts and bumper stickers, the "support" for the troops is very, very shallow - wide, perhaps, but not deep. Our four friends, comrades-in-arms, members of our regimental families, etc are lost and forgotten n the firestorm of righteous indignation that has been ignited by an act of journalistic vandalism. The same applies to the nearly 150 others - they have become inconvenient truths in an ideological debate.
Dear Sir,
In regard's to your comment about (red friday) red t-shirts's and bumper sticker's.
You are so very wrong if you think the general public does'nt give a damn. Sir
you are very mistaken. I'am sure you have heard about The Highway of Hero's,
and here way out in B.C. we sure do give a damn. I know you have lost comrade's, member's
of your Regimental Family, and Spouse's,children,friend's have been devastated when hear-
ing bad new's. In closing. Damn straight we give a damn. And we will never forget the
sacrifice's and losses our men and women in uniform have made, be it the Boer war,
1st world war,2nd world war,korea,vietnam,peacekeeping,nato,bosnia,rwanda,cyprus,
and many other's.
So in closing yes "We give a Damn".
Best Regard's,
Scoty B. (AKA the Brat)
