    I am a military depedent come from a race of many fathers before mine in the military. Well i found out that a few of my friends who worked with him were killed in Iraq...one was sniped in an ambush. The others tried to fight them of but there was no hope. They were some of the greatest guys i know they loved America to death!

    Just want all of you to look at yourself every once and a while and understand some of the sacrifices that the military makes everyday no matter what you are repbulican or democratic there still troops in Iraq who are dieing. We are leaving a high life in America because of the sacrifices made by our for-fathers before us. Who fought for our freedom.

    I want every one if they know a military family to at least go up to them and say thank you for what they are doing becuase what they sacrific everyday you'll never know. My father was in Iraq and having the feeling of losing someone you love....just please if you know a wife who husband is in Iraq go comfort her becuase they are trully fight to go through everyday knowning their love one might be next.

    It never hurts to go talk to people!

    thank you
    Blaze

    my grandfathers and one of my grandmothers served in the army when they where young. I don't have anyone in the army now, because we live in Canada.

    But if you think about it, the war in Iraq was never really neccessary. I personally think it's gone too far, but thats just my opinion. But yea, I feel for all the families who have lost a family member or friend, it must be really hard.

    Yea the military really sacrifices a lot for our country. (I am speaking of the US ^_^ ).
    Most people don't fully understand what they go through or how hard it is for them to sacrifice their lives for the country they love. Without them we would not be the people we are today.

    ...Moment of Silence....



    PS- Your canadian, you wouldn't know what is necessary in Iraq :P

    Haha... You're hilarious.
    Do you know how much canada contributed in WW1?
    Doubt it, they probably only teach you about Usa in school because thats the only important country in the world, right?

    Yeah why make fun of Canada make fun of the people who founded Canada the "French".... I mean what war have they won by themselves? And yeah my step-dad is a marine in Iraq now or Afganistan he gets restationed a lot hes been in the marines since he was 18 and still living this is his last year of combat since hes 47. He said he will probably become a drill seargent. Yeah but people die in Iraq and Afganistan daily from the war and America and all the other countries barely realize how many people have to die for them to be free and safe.

    I'll be going into the army/national guard shortly. Some of my cousins are in Iraq and the family support and support from pretty much anyone really keeps them going and everything.

    To the canada dude...ww1? what else, j/c?

    And it might not of been "needed" but if you haven't noticed, America is sort of a wanna be Peace talker kinda thing and we tend to want more tradeing buds and democrats in the world especially over there so thats our main reasons IMO.
