I realize the poster is probably not old enough to know what a POW is, but I'm still wearing a bracelet. Congrats to Brock for being name Player of the Week!!
You "can only imagine what memories it has to Veterans"? I'm one of them, and no you can't. The words jumping off the page of your post is DID NOT SERVE. You don't have the right to have your sensibilities in a wad. Sit in a quiet place for ahwile, rub your bracelet, purr a little, and all will be well.
All will never be well for my best friend whose bracelet I have on my wrist. He is\was a POW. As for my not serving, I was classified as 4-F, not that you have any idea of what that means.
