Marine Corps vet here. I'll spruce up my profile tomorrow when I wake up, but one thing I've been seeing these past few years I hate is the way EVERY fucking holiday that has anything to do with the service (and some that don't) has become "9/11 Day". It's a goddamn shame and a bit of a dishonor to be memorializing the victims of 9/11 on the 4th of July, for example (just because it's the closest one coming to mind). Their loss has NOTHING to do with the fight for our country's freedom 200 and some-odd years ago. Save the 9/11 memorials for September.
Amen
