I know the men that died in my peacekeeping mission deserve to be remembered even if you don't place any value on their death.
I remember them and think about them monthly.
Enjoy you narrow ignorant viewpoint.

Its taking every fibre of my being to really restrain myself. But here goes...
Ignorance is being uninformed. When someone disagrees with your opinion they arent necessarily uninformed. Disagreement with a bunch of agenda driven bull#### political wars is someones opinion. The right of which your buddies supposedly gave their lives for.
The fact remains that Afghanistan has nothing to do with protecting Canadian society. This is a land that has a vast history of tribal conflict and resistance to foreign powers.
An army is created to protect our land; not project our ideals onto others that dont want it. WW2 was the last threat to Canada. Korea, Suez, Cyprus, Bosnia, Afghanistan, etc... are/were of no threat to Canada.
Being a veteran doesnt give you or anyone else a free pass in the morality dept.
