That interest will quickly dwindle when those same kids become veterans. Then they become a financial liability.

Not enough money for the veterans because they need it for their next giveaway to the bone spurred cowards with medical deferments from that generation.

You know who they are, the ones that wrap themselves in the flag or worse wrap themselves around the flag.

Patriotism to them is preaching to others how to be "true" American Patriots.

I am a veteran, I followed in my grandfather's service in the Army in WW I. Then my dad's service in the Navy in WW II. Then my USAF service in the Vietnam war. And finally two of my kids in the Army during Desert Storm.
