This guy is a true American hero. Gives up his pro-football career and specifically asks to be posted in Afghanistan and gets killed by friendly fire. The military "manufactures" another story to make itself look better, but more so lies so the family can't sue or collect certain benefits. In short, this guy joins to protect his country and gets fucked by his own military. Or how 60 minutes exposed how the military were charging soldiers for body armor after they got blown up wearing it and had to have it cut off them.
I only have respect for vets that were drafted or joined to directly protect US when our homeland is in a direct threat. Other then that you're desperate, ignorant, or a complete moron to be in the military.

Ya' know...reading this crap you've tossed out almost hurts my head.
You say you only have respect for vets that were drafted or joined to protect the homeland USA. And the example you give is a "true American hero" who joined to "protect his country" and asks to be posted to Afghanistan.
While there's no denying the guy is a hero in every sense - I'm curious about one thing.
Going by your logic (sic) - when did Afghanistan declare war or become a direct threat on "homeland USA"?
Did you hurt my "tiny feelings"?
No.
As a military veteran myself (Artillery - Canadian Armed Forces)...we're obligated to serve and protect everyone including even the ungrateful and disrespectful assholes like you wherever they may be.
Fortunate for you - we don't get to choose.
