I completely agree he deserves his pension, I will never say he doesnt. His little protest should not be praised though, we bitch and moan at the seperatists for using the same tactics. When a soldier tries it he is brave.

Are you still whining about this

Didn't make it through boot camp

Who said he was brave for returning his medals?
Nova ( The Proud Canadian Military Groupie)

I suggested it took courage for the guy to do it. Contrary to the beliefs of some, military people are not taught to media "grandstand" and bring a lot of attention to themselves. That and giving back the symbols of all his efforts can't be easy either.
I think that's why the whining continues

... still.
PS - not all of us wear camo! The picture on my profile says it all.
Blue is best, baby!

But if I asked you to wear camo would ya
I support this man's cause, although he certainly did it in a fashion that I guess I would call "unconventional".

I do once in a while. But you wouldn't be able to tell.

Sorry if I seem like I'm saying that you need to have been a soldier/sailor/airman for this but, what's your expert education that gives you a good handle on this subject guy?
