As a Vietnam veteran I am sad and angry. The loss of life in a futile mission is inexcusable. Another failed effort by politicians and senior leadership in the military. My hat is off to those in today's military. I don't know how they do it.

1. We went in to hold a status quo, not to win.
2. Army Generals are put in charge and they obviously no nothing about THE ART OF WAR" or they wouldn't keep setting bases in valleys so the enemy can shoot down on them.
3. Allowing that idiot Trump to bargain with an enemy from a position of weakness instead of strength was just plain stupid!
4. Electing a "DRAFT DOGER" and coward president was stupid. Military service should be a prerequisite for the job.

It's both sad AND as another post stated; inevitable. God Bless those who have been there through all of this turmoil. Be well friends.

20 years! How sad and demeaning. It almost seems like a WASTE. I'm heartbroken. Good luck to the Afghans.

Super pissed. I said this was a modern Vietnam war back about 15 years ago.

If you server over there, know that your service was not in vain. However, at a certain point the Afghans need to stand up and fight for themselves. Defend whats yours
