Serving is good, in fact it's great, but the fact that they served doesn't
mean they love their country *TODAY*. Wilson has proven he doesn't by
living in Canada all those years and the fact that Bob is considering the
same proves he doesn't either.

"A Veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard,
or reserve is someone who, at one point in his or her life,
wrote a blank check made payable to The "United States of America",
for an amount of "up to and including my life."

That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country
who no longer understand it.
