We are disappointed in the VA. This is how they work. NONE of us went in to the military under the selective service. We do/did things we volunteered for. Nothing less. One of us hates aircraft and water, one calls in his own position to air and artillery strikes to save others, and the other one's motto is "So that others may live." We all live under the frame "Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!*”" Every mission I went on, I volunteered for. Same with the other two. No questions.
What part of that needs pity? I know dims and sheep try to use that because they don't know who they're talking about. I have a saying that I mentioned a long time ago. "I would rather suffer in good company, than live comfortable surrounded by delicate men." Honestly, the last thing we want is pity.
Btw, is anybody suggesting we ban toxic burn pits or at least reduce the exposure?
Most of those areas are in the distant FOBs. It's either that or spread dysentery throughout the camp, ruin their water systems, and kill everyone there. Honestly, you have to burn the shit to clean it. The bacteria will be killed so people don't die. If your downwind, it sucks. What you want to do is to put your pit downwind of prevailing winds. If the winds change, it sucks. Do people throw other things in there that are toxic? Yes, because it's the sure way to get rid of it. Lots of mercury, lead, and other heavy metals.
I was also indirectly ridiculed for "bombing wantonly." I'll take credit for that and double down on it. When your enemy drills the temples of 10 year olds to have the parents watch their children die in agony, I don't have a problem with it. When they are the biggest regional slave trade (women, girls as young as 4, and boys all for sex), I don't have a problem with that. And to ridicule me, means you don't understand this enemy.
This is part of their war. I spoke about this before. You warn them. They do what they're not supposed to do (because they'll test you). You do what you said you would do. They either comply or not. Eventually you reach an agreement. It really is that easy. Do people die? sure. Eventually people don't. They will continue to murder until it costs them too much. You need to get out of the Ugly American mindset and think like them.
