People in all lines of work such as logging, mining , construction have a lot of physical abuse without any retirement. Many of the world War 2 vets I have known were racked with war wounds, fingernail fungus, malaria and still managed working without any complaints. This is our new cry baby mentality that has permeated from top to bottom in our victim mentality society. The people I use to associated with appreciated everyday they were given and would have been too ashamed to belly ache about their problems. Vets who were disabled in service should be taken care of like the hero's they are .Vets deserve out respect ,and the way Vietnam vets were treated was a national disgrace, but let's not over due it.
