    Living in an area with a Naval Base. I am more inclined to say thanks to the naval personnel.

      Well, Einstein, naval personnel are U.S. troops.
      Cards sent go to all branches. You can't choose your branch is all; and why should you?

          This statement reminds me of coming across something similar when I was in graduate school. I remember reading in a book that included an account from a former Marine with a troubled conscience; he described himself as "a racketeer for U.S. corporations" when he recounted his duties as a Marine in the first half of twentieth century.

          A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.

            Not a bad thought, if you're dealing with robotics.
            These are human beings.

              Hey Slowwy, this is the definition of racketeer from dictionary.com:

              A person who commits crimes such as extortion, loansharking, bribery, and obstruction of justice in furtherance of illegal business activities.

              Where your comment about robotics fits in with this, I do not know.

                Don't do anything then, if that's how you feel.

                    paraphrasing a little South Park philosophy...or Team America

                    Sure we're pr!cks, but thats what you need to deal with a$$holes

                    I just get tired of our pols keeping us in the dark, the worst of 9/11 could have been avoided had we been kept informed of the threat of hijacking planes.
