We can't, people use up the military and toss it.\nI know for a fact that America don't deserve it's military AT ALL.\n\nAsk a Vet how long it took to get into the VA, or ask me.\n\nI love my Country but it craps on it's military when not needed.\n\nIf Ihad it my way you had to choose \n\n1. Tec school out of HS\n\n2. Military out of HS\n\nYou need to earn to be an American, no batter way then putting ones life down for ones country!!\n\nLong Live The Fighters!\n\nI hate people who think they know more then the Goverment knows, the war would have happened anyhow, they had allready shot at our aircraft before the war!!\nDo you think that they would have just sat by and did nothing, don't you think if the french sent arms in that they would have funded anything that would hurt us.\n\nget a clue, the world is a lifeboat and people want to see us off it!\n\nI'm sure most of you would never go back too a VA if been in one, it's smells like pee in the morning and people are left too rot in long lines for simple meds.\n\nThe staff comes from other places to train and test skills on you before they goto a place that they can be sued.\n\nVets can't sue doctors at the VA, if they mess up on you it's just what happens.\n\nThe first line of defense is the Military, in the past the military has done nothing less then save the world, and they are treated at or below fee clinic.\n\nThank a vet, buy a book and take it too a VA.\n\nSend a card.\n\nIf you see a Soldier , thank them.\n\nMost soldiers make less then 50. and hour, they don't do it for the money, they do it for our country.

In the 1991 war, 382 died and 467 were wounded in some fashion.\n\nIn the 2003 war and the following occupation, 2,325 died and 17,467 were wounded in some fashion.\n\n\nThat's not bad at all.

To serve your country in such a way is a supreme sacrifice.  I think of my family members who were vetrans.  How hard it must have been to do what they did, and yet the conviction they must have had to do it.  I think of what their collective effort did to stop genocide and hatred.  We must not ever forget.

Alot of info. you are wanting... Vietnam combat -yes 1965 president L.B.J. (Johnson), a democrat. Korean conflict (War) started under under Truman, a democrat (the first part of this question is unclear). Troops were pulled out of Korea in 1953 under Eisenhower. The Spanish-American war was actually the 19Th century, began in 1898 and ended about a year later. Intelligent questions deserve intelligent answers. deserving of points?

Getting all of my people back to their loved ones from Viet-Nam, except one, over a time span of three years as a 21 year old Staff Sergeant in Recon You can count the DSC if you want too and a few others. The other great accomplishment in my life is still being around to watch my kids and 21 grandchildren do good in this world. Like in Viet-Nam, miracles still very much happen.

Military service is required of everyone but certain party members in North Korea.  It is in this way the indoctrinate the people to their oppressive system.  Many women will stay for the reason many men do; life in the military is so much better than as a civilian.

Well there are a few. My Grandfather (my papa) he was in the Military. My dad, he passed away on May 29,1992. So, this Memorial Day it will have been 14 years since he died. He will be greatly missed. I love him very much and it is still so hard to deal with. And of course I always think of the men and women who have died for us and the men and women over there right now.My prayers are with all the family's of the men and women serving today.\nBy The BradAusmusls.....GO ASTROS!!!!!

First off, for most of us WW2 took five years of actual fighting and then the cold war with its regional conflicts that followed went on for another Forty!\n\nAlso in that conflict the allies would lose the total number of casualties incurred in Iraq in a single day.\n\nThe war in Iraq was won.....It is the peace which is being lost.

Depends where overseas.  In a warzone yes.  In Germany or Italy.  No.  I don't know about Korea, I had a bunch of buddies that were stationed there they just didn't like it.

only after the US invaded these not-so-much-of-a-threat-to-the-US countries that they started strapping and blowing themselves up in record numbers. you worry about the lowly guy with bombs strapped on his chest... are you even aware that North Korea's REAL weapons of mass destruction are pointed to the West? so what threat are you talking about? as far as i'm concerned, we are (the US) a manace to others and ourselves.

During the following 25-years the ensuing war would create some of the strongest tensions in US history. Almost 3 million US men and women were sent thousands of miles to fight for what was a questionable cause. In total, it is estimated that over 2,5 million people on both sides were killed.\n\nhttp://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/VietnamWar.htm\n\nADDITIONAL VIETNAM LINKS ON THE WEB\n\nhttp://www.multied.com/vietnam/Links.html\n\nAnti War Movement.\n\nhttp://library.thinkquest.org/27942/indexf.htm\n\nGood luck.\n\nKevin, Liverpool, England.

I cannot recall "Peace with Honor".  However, a little over 58,000 American boys died needlessly in Vietnam over the years.  How  very sad indeed; all of those lives essentially wasted.  They could have married and become fathers and enjoyed life.

They were divided into North Korea and South Korea with Nationalism being a problem. Also North Korea was Communist and South Korea had a government supported by the United States.

I thought the American public had forgotten about Afghanistan...We've already lost too many precious soldiers lives to a war that was based on lies.  These four troops just added to the blood toll on President Bush's hands.  We should be asking the question of how many of our public officials' children have been killed in Afghanistan or Iraq?  The wars in the 20th and now 21st century have always been fought by the poor and lower middle class who have been proud to serve their country with ideals that America was founded on - freedom, liberty and justice.
