Forum,
I write this thread in memory of those who have fallen in the line of military duty. These brave men and women have sacrificed everything to fight for their loved ones, strangers who support the military, and strangers who do not support the military; they fight for freedom. As a USCAP Cadet/SrA, I get the honor of meeting many veterans of foreign wars (VFWs) and hear their incredible stories of their fallen squad mates and their close encounters with death; most of them had more than one. Most of us have not experienced pure terror like these veterans. Most of us have not intentionally put our lives on the line before. These fallen heroes have ended their lives for us to live in the great America we live in today. I salute these fallen veterans for their outstanding service in our armed forces and pray that they are okay wherever they are now.
To finish, I'd like to share a famous quote:
"And I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know I'm free. And I won't forget the men who died, who gave that right to me." ~Lee Greenwood
I will be hosting a ceremony tomorrow (5/28/12) at 2:30PM EST at the following place (PM me if you would like to speak): http://www.roblox.com/Memorial-Day-Service-place?id=82020051 |

| There is a difference between corrupt soldiers and a bunch of twenty-year olds in the army acting their age. |

| @pr3 hes Canadian so no there not. us soldiers have committed several massacres in Afghanistan and Iraq. this is a fact. however the soldiers who committed these acts do not represent the majority of us military forces. there have bin attempted cover ups of these events by the us government and military. however i am still for this war being that it toppled a theocracy and put in place a democracy. |

| ^ I agree completely and I'd like to add that in the military (like any civilian job) will have people who are bad at what they do, but we can't generalize all of them because of one incident |

| 6prind, that right there shows that you do not respect our military. I put a lot of passion into that speech and I find what you said very offensive. Learn how to show some respect before you say something like that. |

"men and women"
no, just men
the only women in the US military are on boats or planes, and none of them have ever been in a real combat situation |

| because i find a thread on a stupid forum written in such a way as a memorial speech cheesy and useless means i don't respect the military? generations of my family have served in the military including my father and uncle. Ive actively participated in VFW events as well. you can get the hell out. also lordneo women in the us military can be in the marines army air force and navy. many have died in combat situations. OFFICIAL combat POSTS for women however are not allowed. this along with the draft need to change. |

| @prthe no they don't as i said women can not be in official combat roles and do not participate in the draft. most are on support or supply roles with a few in leadership position's. many units such as the army rangers recon marines 82nd airborne(which are almost entirely combat units) do not have women in them. |

| It's important to me too, but if it is really important to you, don't go posting on roblox about it. |
