    No more individual memorial services for fallen soldiers

    painful and shameful

    http://www.kxly.com/news/?sect_rank=...story_id=11473

    So many Fort Lewis soldiers are being killed in Iraq the Army base will no longer hold individual memorial services.

    Starting next month Fort Lewis says it will hold one memorial a month for all the dead soldiers.

    also don't forget: US has 200.000 homeless vets

      what I also don't get is why people keep thinking the Republicans are the party for the military, while vets are overwhelmingly running as Democrats

          That's just some good ol' fashioned Compassionate Conservatism at work. Fort Lewis, you're doing a heckuva job. Kudos on your efforts to streamline the process and to complete the circle of treating human beings like disposable playthings.

            that's just a different way of saying "I like the ones who are like me, fuck/kill the rest"

            the word conservatism almost always implies intolerance to those that are different

              Republicans love you when you're in the military. Once you're out and of no use to them they couldn't give a rats ass about you.

                unless you get wounded: those lazy bastards asking for quality treatment after they loose a leg or an arm.

                those talking about morals the most, usually have the least when it comes down to it

                    funny you bring that up

                    "the military is putting many more amputees back on active duty _ even back into combat, in some cases."
