A veteran's story
My husband has a cousin whose father served in WWII. The cousin was also a veretan. At some point, as a mature adult, the cousin went to France, to the place his Dad was stationed. When he arrived in the town where his Dad had been stationed, he learned that his father and other soldiers stationed in that town, who had protected it, were still treated as heroes. The local bar still had pictures of the WWII U.S. soldiers on the walls, and the U.S. troops were commemorated on the anniversary of WWII each year. When they found out who the son was related to, he was treated like a rock star. The cousin said he had no idea that his father and the rest of the soldiers had been honored this way.
I heard the story from the cousin several years ago. U.S. military troops have made a difference all over the world wherever they are stationed. We hear about the bad things that happen when soldiers do harm. But we forget about the good that our military actions have done in the past, which have instilled goodwill over the world.

(in case that's even necessary)Therefore, chump must denigrate our military heroes.
