Their nothing wrong with a Solider speaking out.If he feels something isn't
right its his duty.Their is a time & place & chain of command.After serving you
can speak out if you wish while you are in you have to go by the orders you are
given.If you feel they are wrong take it up your Chain of Coomand.Just like you
do with your empolyment or you find newemployment.If you don't like your orders
while in the Military their is a Chain of Command.We have a country that
everyone whats to come in because our Freedom.Freedom isn't free never
was.For some one to cometo me & ask for a soliders address that served in Iraq
just so he can write him & then I see him speaking out againest the Iraq War ON
A CHAT ROOM.Later on it piss's me off.Makes me wonder what was his real reason
for getting hisaddress.I went to a homeless Veterans Meeting several months
back & a Veitnam Veteran told us how everyone was hitting them with negative
remarks when they came back home.We didn't even have the computors like we have
know.I spent yesterday afternoon at East Orange Veterans Hospital you should
hear some stories.Yesterday I also lost a very closefriend that served in
WWII.Peace doesn't come free it comes at a hardprice lost of life.10 years from
know someone might be building abuilding in Iraq & could come across WMD that
Saddum buried in the ground we allforgetting something here Bin Laidin?
