I don't agree we needed to go into any of the countries, and neither does my son...but he has a job to do irrespective of what he believes.
My son would be appalled by 'parties for heros' and embarrassed and used for propoganda...all he and the rest of the lads and lasses out there want is for THEM to feel they have some support from the people back home.
Yes they signed up for it...but, if you were in a job you didn't like, you can quit...they don't have that luxury.
Well paid...how much would you like to be paid to be putting your life on the line 24/7.
How would you like to have to go out every day, putting yourself at risk, and feel that no-one cares.
