I'm unfamiliar with that conflict? You've got to educate me...ou812 wrote:way back long ago it's one and only wars was against the USA, the USA lost.
For you French Canadians are you referring to the War of the Conquest? Or the Seven Years War as it is often called in Europe? If so the battles that took place from 1754-1763 had little to do with Americans. As America was just a struggling British colony at the time. The French and British had historically gone fist to cuffs as early as 1066. But during the 18th Century a good many of these battles were fought on North American soil, as the two world superpowers wrestled over rights to the new world. And if memory serves me correctly, we (and by "we" I mean American's British ancestry) won. If you haven't noticed, the British got to choose what parts of North America they wanted and the French got the table scraps. What's the weather up their like ou812? It's 80 degrees and sunny here today.
I'm not proud of my government as of late. I'm not particularly proud of many Americans. But I'm apart of a tight military community, and as salty as they come. Our country makes mistakes like any other. But we will never be ashamed of dividing from the mother land, dropping the bomb, liberating Europe, or providing Muslims the opportunity to make the ultimate sacrifice 24-7. It's countries like the US and our strong Allies that push the envelope and put the rest of the world in it's place. For all you nay sayers and flower childs, all I can say is hold on and shut up. We're gonna take you for a ride.
And really...don't exagerate the death toll. The 101st Airborne Division lost that in a day of fighting the VC. More folks die a year in car accidents, smoking or probably drowining than have died in that shit hole of the Planet.
