Lets Hear It For The Boys
Im quite annoyed i havnt wrote this blog sooner but due to my life being like a train crash lately its had to be put to one side.
On the 27th June it was Armed Forces Day, unfortunatly I didnt realise this until I went and sought shelter from the rain. I saw the veterans, TA and the Cadets march through the rain and it suddenly made me feel very proud of our armed forces.
People are protesting against our army being at war with Afgan, and yeah I wish they werent out there but no matter how much people protest it isnt going to change the fact that people are out there fighting for our country. Instead we should be supporting them and showing them we are proud of what they are doing.
I have a mate out in Iraq atm and I am petrified that something bad will happen to him, but amongst all of that I am 100% proud of him because it is not the easiest of jobs, but he is out there risking his life.
We do not recognise the bravery of these soliders as often as we should, rather than news reports on stupid conspiracies on MJ’s death, there should be more reports on our soliders, people who are doing much more than making music, something that is so trivial gets more attention than something heroic, and it disgusts me.
Back in the war young people were lying about their age to get into the armed forces because it was considered an honour, now most young people would see it as a huge effort to even consider it.
