Well it's good but who is it for? Veterans who most need it probably will care less and it does nothing for those who can function without it because they are already following some type of creed. A Vererans Creed is totally meaningless to civilians, so exactly what is it for? It kind of smacks to me of an organization coming up with mission statements and goals because someone told them they must have such things.

Some very good points. You are right no civ will care about this, and we should already know what a veteran is about!

I took an oath on 18 November 1978, it didn't have an expiration date.
