I think their efforts are definitely something to celebrate. The problem is nowadays if people are patriotic it automatically means their conservative.
Oh, that's really cool. Your father was in the Navy? Wow.

I think it's pretty cool. Apparently there used to be an old old old war heroes television show and he was played by William Shatner. Or so my mother tells me. My grandmother has the tape.
Yeah. He was going to be a Seal, but they found out he was colorblind, so he became a boiler technician on the ships. Served in the Gulf War.
