This'll probably annoy some, but....
Should we also apologise to those who, like my parents, didn't have
any choice?
At least they made it back home, unlike some of their friends.

Veteran's Day in the US is a day of remembering those who served. Some
who served, volunteered, others were drafted. I'm not sure if an apology is
necessary when remembering the sacrifice each made in their own way. My
feelings today are of gratitude and thanksgiving for all those who served.
Yes, I am one of the many who have answered that call. No apology is
required as it is my honor to be among this group. Bill Barber
