You're a really great guy. X3 We should honor our troop's sacrifices all the time, not just on memorial day. :3

Absolutely! I have a great deal of respect for our kids in uniform. They do a hell of a job under a hell of conditions. Since people and the media on Memorial Day tend to focus on those who served in WW2 and our current war(s) - and rightly so, of course - they tend to downplay or gloss over those who were lost in our other conflicts, like Vietnam and especially our other "forgotten war," Korea. That's what I hoped to bring attention to with this cartoon (as evidenced by the time eras on the tombstones) - that we should remember ALL our fallen from ALL our wars, not just the most famous ones.

Thanks for the compliment.

Indeed, and I hope we don't treat those in Iraq the same way we did in Vietnam...

Different Army, different people, different world this time around. I have faith in our soldiers.

They all deserve to be remembered.

Absolutely!
