ServiceDaughter recently retired from Air Force. Son-in-law Chinook pilot, served in Afghanistan and Mali. I don't believe the world is going to hell in a hand basket. There are lots of great young people around. I agree totally with Experienced about how sweet freedom is. To be able to rant about our politicians, to travel freely and pea away our time and wealth according to any drunken whim, these are great joys. It is also great and appropriate to salute those who sacrificed to pass on these freedoms to us.
