I was listening to the radio the other day, and the radio DJ stated that he does not go out of his way to thank veterans for their service. He mentioned the fact that he does not know what they have been through or if they even wanted to be thank for the things they have done. This started a big debate, some people saying that we was ungrateful, others stating that they prefer not to be thanked for their service.

What are your thoughts on this situation? Do you or Do you not prefer to be thanked for your service.

I personally don't expect a thank you from anyone, but welcome and appreciate it when it is giving.

All active duty stand down(but don't walk away, this will effect you later) Veterans does it ever bother you to hear that? "Thank you for your service" I apologize but it mmmm...bugs me something awful, telling me " your done go sit down and grow feeble " needs changed to something that endures like we do something like "YO JOE!" or another saying meaning get outta my way theres work to do and I ain't done yet! Forgive if I wasted your time, just wondering.
