All that was sacrificed then for the shit show we face today 
Know many that died that are probably rolling in their graves or deep in the ocean.
Found out something about dealing with the VA regarding stones , bronze , medallions. Iāll cut through the shit here. IF YOU or someone dies IF the VA knows the deceased has Existing ā private stoneā , you only rate a medallion. To me its not cool. The way to circumvent is to not TELL them. They donāt ask !
Reason I think this is I fucked up.
I Have/Had a friend that I went from First Grade to Boot-Camp with that got blown up in a mobile home the day I got out of the Navy. I Left a note , told him I was home would see him tomorrow. BOOM !!
Killed 5 , knew them all. Sure glad I went home
Long story short he had a Private stone , nothing military. Has bugged me forever. Finally got off my ass , had to get his DD-214 , he had one blood relative left. THATS where I screwed up. I Shouldnāt have mentioned a private stone. I didnāt know it had any bearing in getting a Bronze marker for him or others.
Feel bad , At least he will have something that will show he was a Veteran finally.
Mums the word if itās important to the Veteran. Iām having my shit burnt and scattered in the Drink via the Navy , not a problem , less space
