As a vet of the PG War, I just shake my head when i see posts dismaying soldiers efforts, while being put in a situation that their governments mandate.
I realize that today's war efforts are not WWII (which I would have gladly volunteered for), but that does not make today's soldiers lesser men & women.
War sucks, we all know that but, Remembrance Day is about the men & women who died in the line of duty. It isn't about the war.
As for companies making people work on this day..... well i shake my head again. Growing up, this was always mandatory.
