The hypocrisy of yesterday's "Day of Honour" for Afghanistan vets was staggering.
If they were at all truly interested in honouring servicemen and women, then treating them well and fairly upon their return would be a good start. This government loves to wrap itself in military glory whenever it serves its purpose (its use of War of 1812 propaganda, rebranding the party logo to resemble the air force logo, paying lip service to vets, etc.) while at the same time cutting benefits and access to benefits as you said, switching from a life time pension to a lump sum payment for disability, sharing the personal information of vets to make a stand in efforts to discredit them via their personal medical files... it goes on and on.
The next election can't come soon enough.
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
