They "did their duty"? For every veteran since WW2 that duty would include their oath to defend the constitution. Yet that document says only congress can declare war. EVERY war since then has been illegal, and every vet who took an oath to defend that constitution had a moral and legal opposition to oppose those unconstitutional wars.  That makes them war criminals, since any act in an illegal war is a crime. Marines are called "jarheads." Apparently that's because the gov't can just screw off their heads and pour in any lies and propaganda it wants. Then screw the lid back on and those false beliefs stay safely there for life. You remind me of Hermann Goering's statement (about how easy it is to drive people to war) while waiting for execution after being convicted of waging preemptive, aggressive war (you know, like Obama & W did?)

You're being lied to again. And drinking deeply of the Kool-Aid.
