Pride deceives all.

How many soldiers have been injured, maimed or died in war.

Only to comeback and be mistreated and neglected by its own government.

The best they can hope for is to get a medal of honour, and then carry on with your life with the amputations, PTSDs, loss of loves ones etc.

They thought it was for a great cause.

It is all manipulation.

Look how Afghanistan ended,

Look how Iraq, Syria, Libya, Vietnam..

Was it worth it?

Do not confused bravery with pride.

The soldiers are just pawns.
