One does not have to be a knee-jerk pacifist to oppose this war. There are many of us out here who do not want to see the soldiers' valuable training, resources, and LIVES wasted in this foolish undertaking even if we are not categorically against every war, and even if we support the need for honorable service and a standing professional army. Support our troops by bringing them home!<BR/><BR/>The Fisher House material is also especially valuable at this time, because in this particular war, the numbers we hear in the news simply don't reflect the huge number of soldiers coming home with severe injuries; we hear only about the deaths. The death toll, while bad enough doesn't tell nearly the whole story; injured soldiers who would have died in the field in earlier wars, due to improved battlefield technology are instead returning home maimed. While it's great that these men and women are still among the living, their lives are changed forever, and they and their families do need the support of society upon return. The Fisher House is thus especially needed in this conflict. Thank you for posting something to remind people of its existence.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-1144877155718454032006-04-12T16:25:00.000-05:002006-04-12T16:25:00.000-05:00Thank you so much for letting us know about Fisher...Thank you so much for letting us know about Fisher House and how we can help support it.Dixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03051120501450103612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-1144866552968661022006-04-12T13:29:00.000-05:002006-04-12T13:29:00.000-05:00Thank you for (re)stating that anti-war does not e...Thank you for (re)stating that anti-war does not equal anti-troop, (or anti-America).<BR/>My father and grandfather both served as well. My father has often voiced the concern that while his generation was "the greatest," the current one might be lost . . .Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05330711752873654328noreply@blogger.com
