HBO: Taking Chance

Whether you support the war or not, you have to support the troops over there. Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines, men and women, are some of the greatest people our country has to offer.

To those that have served, are serving or have loved ones in the armed forces:

THANK YOU!!!!

Looks powerful. I hope no propaganda is inserted......It's been my experience that HBO can be a bit inflammatory.

I find it ironic that people talk about "supporting" a war. How can anyone support a war? You can support a cause or a person, but if you support war, doesn't that make you a war mongerer?

I support freedom and the pursuit of freedom. Being an Army brat, I ALWAYS support our soliders. Sometimes supporting our soldiers means insisting on bringing them home. I flip flop on the Iraq war but my support of our soldiers never waivers.

IDK......Seems like the only accurate judge of whether a war is "just" is history. I think most of us today would say that WWII was worth supporting, but at the time there was a strong isolationist movement advocating that America mind her own business. Most of us now would agree that Vietnam was a totally FUBAR situation, but at the time fear of communism was a very real, concrete idea.

It was a very touching trailer. And like Donna, I will always support our troops, and the troops of our allies.

I wish we inhabited a world where they were not necessary, but given that we don't, then they deserve our respect, our support, and our sincere thanks.

This looks like a good story.

I think sometimes in our zeal for "peace" we forget that the people who are "serving us", who usually believe in what they are doing "for us", get lost in the middle.

I think it is so important to always remember their service and sacrifice "for us"!

We cannot let what happened to the Vietman Veterans ever happen again!

The men and women who fight for our country should be respected and honored.

Regardless of how we feel about the war itself.

Whatever war that may be at the time.

I feel very strongly about that!

It is happening all over again, what you see in the "civilian" media is the tip of the iceberg, anyone who cares please look into The Army Times or Navy Times, etc. online or by subscription. These stories are the norm but nobody seems to hear about it.

Can't forget those brave men and women. They do a great job of protecting our waterways and coastlines. Gotta love all the military.:w00t:

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      April Surgery

My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
