The declining % of Americans serving in the military is probably a big reason for the lackadaisical attitude that many Americans have toward the military and the propensity of the U.S. to engage in war for little or no reason (other than corruption). Less than one-half of one percent of the population is in active duty military service. That seems likely to decrease in the future, while most of our political leaders apparently believe that we need to rush to war. Such a waste of human and financial treasure!

Loved your piece and The Chinese Forget Me Not. Strange to celebrate a day for honor for those who died fighting for freedom when your govenment just tried to kill you.
