Trust Veterans, Not Draft Dodgers
RECEIVED Tue., May 4, 2004
Dear Editor,
How pathetic it is to see the depths of political ambition displayed when two draft dodgers denigrate the military service of an opponent. I can only imagine the contempt the draft dodgers must feel for all who serve now as well as those that have previously served.
We should always look at the actions of our leaders instead of relying on their words. Our men and women in service deserve more than lip service from our government. They deserve the honor and support given to them in words by our government to be fulfilled by actions. They should be provided with adequate equipment now and all promises fulfilled when they return after serving our country.
