I suppose I support the men and women in the military the same way I support anyone. There are a lot of things in this world that I don't like, lots of livelihoods and ways of life that I, personally, do not agree with. But to say that I do not support those who chose as such, whatever that means, I think everyone would agree is ridiculous. Why should I demarcate those who choose to serve in the military and support or not support them? I wish them all the best and hope they come home safely. For whatever that means and whatever good it does.
