Frances, there is nothing whatsoever wrong with honouring Soldiers. AS a returned serviceman I think I have the right to say, it depends on who is doing the honouring.
Tony Abbott, fine, he has a clean slate and has done plenty for the Community away from Politics...his RFS Work, His Life Saving work, his work with the Aboriginals (the latter largely unrecognised)
Oh, bugger off, Red. Abbott's a garden-variety political schemer down there with the worst of them.
I don't know about the Air Force, son, but soldiers couldn't give a sh!t which pollies come around trying to be pals.
We hate them all.
HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN THE FIRING LINE???
for the life of me I cannot imagin e it.
but I would think our men an d women fighting evil for us.... would think it great that someone thought enough of them to visit and say THANK YOU on behalf of everyone of us who would never have the opportunity to do it personally...
and as far as I care the PM should do that job...
if not its the GG.. and I prefer the PM of the day thank you..
I would think it would be a special moment for them... those at home havent forgotten them..
most of us wouldnt have a clue what they live with or what they think..
I have never heard of any serviceman complaining about a visit from their Pm..
or leader of the Opposition..
NEVER.
Yeah? Which war were you in?

Jesus, love, you’ve given me a headache with one post. How does hubbie cope? If he’s not on morphine now, best to get him down to the quack’s for a script quick, poor bloke. He must be in agony.
You can take your PM and your GG and put them in the spare bed with poor old hubbie. If you want to finish him off, that should do it.
Might as well get it over with.

Sorry, love, I’ve forgotten the question.
