Aside from WWII, which wars were a threat to our country? I hope I don’t sound disrespectful to veterans, but when we thank them for our freedoms I am a bit conflicted. Thank you.

    To answer your question, in my opinion, probably none. We’ve definitely been involved in conflicts that have furthered or protected America’s interests, which in theory as citizens, we benefited from.

    I would think that veterans and current service members deserve respect/gratitude for acting as a deterrent against external hostile entities that otherwise might be interested in ruining your day to day existence. They do jobs that I personally don’t want to do and I’m thankful they’re there and willing to do it. Have a safe and happy Independence Day!
