re: I hate that I have to remind vets on FB that today ain't about us.

I would have to agree here. I think its the new generation vets though. I cross trained about mid way through my career and had to go back to classes with some of the younger generation and they were a damn shame. Completely entitled group. I believe those are the ones giving veterans a bad name.

We serve because we love our country and our people, not because we expect to reap the rewards of program afforded to veterans.

I can't tell you how many times I heard the words, " I didn't come in to fight or bust my arse! I just needed money for college! "
