screw that..lets just stick to the subject. these old people who werent scared and cowarts to serve their country are celebrating a tradition. and they will keep celebrating it. they didnt come there to run their mouths about all the controversal bs that is goin onw in the world right now. thats what fox news and the chico er is for. its good to see old people be at peace and keeping a tradition thats been going even before the birth of the united states. but looks like you got a history of running your mouth on here with nothing but negativety..
