Why do we respect and honor veterans?
From what I understand military personnel are hired guns that sign a contract to do the armies bidding no questions asked and if they say no , they can be charged.
So why do we honor or respect veterans when they are just hired guns , mercenaries? They may get injured and come home with injuries but they chose that life. They chose to sell themselves to the military.
Only talking about non conscripts
