Why is Kroger skipping/ignoring all of our American Veterans from previous conflicts??
Please explain why you think that all those who served during WWII, Korea, Vietnam, 1st Iraqi war, Kosovo, and all the skirmishes where our troops have been involved, even during times of peace why they too are not considered War Hero’s. Many brave men and women have served in the Armed Forces, risking their lives for our country and where just as brave as those serving now. Many have lost limbs, friends, comrades while serving.
How can you discard the service for those who severed before and after 9/11, and only Honor those who serve now?
Remember, those who serve cannot quit when things get tough, they are in for the duration. They come home when their job is done; they are deployed away from their loved ones for long periods of time; they too are our American Hero’s.
