How many times were YOU shot at? You weren't. Why didn't YOU follow your family tradition and REALLY "serve" instead of trying to use your job at the DoD as a 'flag to wrap your self in'.

You tried to put me down because I didn't serve either, but NEITHER did YOU. And your little pissant husband whines cuz his 'disabillity check' is only $110.00/mo. I have a freind who recieves that SAME minimum disabillity check from a gunshot wound he got in Nam. I have never heard any whining from him that it wasn't enough and he is a blue collar factory worker. He is DANG proud that his government chose to give that little bit of lasting gratitude for a wound that caused him NO PERMENANT DAMAGE. The exact oppisite of you husbands attitude.

Those who chose not to JOIN (yes Elsie, everyone of them chose to join) deserve more than what they get. Why don't you chose one and send them money every month. Maybe feb's check. After all, as feb told us years ago, it is just a dinner out to ya'll every month, but I guarentee you there is a vet, or better yet and ACTIVE soldier whose family could use that $110.00 to pay the electric bill, or the phone bill, or groceries. After all, you pointed out that they qualify for food stamps.

And BTW- my freind had his check sent directly to the bank and into his kids college fund EVERY month. He didn't flitter it away on a 'dinner out'. He certainly never whines that it is NOT ENOUGH.
