Thanks... how kind of you to say. (Sarcasm? What sarcasm? Of course he means all that nice stuff! Dammit Jim, he's a liberal not a slug... he knows quality, inciteful posting when he sees it!)
The military has a tremendously consistent policy of not caring about long term health problems of the troops. Bullet wound, no problem we'll fix you up great. Cancer from agent orange, gulf war syndrome, ptsd, etc? You're just a whiner, we don't need whiners here.
