General Discussion

So many DUers served, or have family members who served, in the military. Trump seems completely oblivious to what that means.

Both my brothers served, one in Vietnam. Almost all my uncles who were old enough to enlist served in WWII. One was a B-24 pilot whose bomber was shot down and he became a POW. My only uncles who didn't serve in WWII were my mom's only brother, who was needed to help my grandfather with farming, and my youngest uncle, who later was career military, a colonel, and a military consultant after retiring. My dad lied about his age to enlist during WWII, and he also served during the Korean War. My sister's first husband had been a pilot in Vietnam. My mom's first love enlisted at the start of WWII and died in combat.
