Politicians against Veterans again

It sickens me to death how politicians are always out to get veterans, it's not our fault that they were to cowardly to join the military and fight the battles, policing actions and wars they chose to send us to. Now they are trying to close Chapter 317 of the Vietnam Veterans of America (VVA) in Kansas City, because their members are too old to make all the meetings. I am not a veteran of the Vietnam war, and to me it was a war regardless what anybody else says, but I am a veteran of the Iraq War, which I served 2 tours in. Veterans fight for freedom and liberty so the rest of the world can do almost as they please, they have seen horrors the common man couldn't or wouldn't face. Their closest friends have either been killed, shoot, blown up, disfigured or mutilated, those who have survived the horrific ordeals and trials of war are thrown back into society to suck it up on their own. These chapters were formed by fellow veterans so they can help each other cope with their nightmares, have some special place to be with a person that has been and seen what they have seen, because if you haven't been there, you will never truly understand.

I say let these Heroic people enjoy their organization, I don't care if there is only one member left, they are entitled to have it, they fought for it with blood sweat and tears, and were lucky and I should say very lucky they didn't pay the ultimate sacrifice like their brethren before
