[Blindvet-talk] Please take a moment to REMEMBER our LOST HERO'S

[Marianne Haas via Blindvet-talk]

Hello Dwight,
I live with a Veteran.  I agree that we should  remember all the Veterans,
gone before us.  I would like to add one more thing.  Let us all remember
the Veterans who died as they could not get proper health care in time.  In
addition, there is a war that people want to forget: the Cold War.  Those
Veterans cannot get many benefits as the Cold war was not a war according to
the Veterans Administration.  Then, why is it called the Cold War?  People
serving in the Cold War should at least get a service Medal.  More and more
politicians agree and vote for that, but the  Department of Defense prevents
this from happening.  Also, why does there have to be a Means Test for any
Veteran?  People who served in any capacity should get all the benefits.
So, let us remember all this and do something about the injustice.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Please take a moment out of your busy schedules this weekend and Monday
Memorial Day , to stop and remember all those Brave Men and Women who gave
their  lives for our freedom.
We lost over 7000 Hero's in just Iraq and Afganistan! 
This just scratches the surface counting the number of Hero's we have lost
during the last 100 years. 
WWI, WWII, Korea, Viet Nam, The Gulf War, Iraq, and Afganistan.
In remembering those who we have lost , take a moment to thank their
families who have suffered those losses. God , in remembering our lost
Hero's grant them eternal peace!
Dwight
