I'm sick and tired of comparisons between conflicts the Australian Defence Force has been involved in.
Who cares if the war was morally right or not. Our men and women of the defence force fulfilled the obligations of thy governments bidding at the time. Get with the program people and stop knocking those past and present members of the defence force that have served or are currently serving in a war zone. Politicians decide on which war our defence force will fight if people dont like that then take the matter up with the government stop blaming those that have served or that are seving. The ANZAC tradition was about an entire nation supporting its veterans, unfortunately since the Korean war to present day there is an unthinkable but very obvious despicable display of an ungrateful nation.
As for Don Tate, please take another happy pill mate we know you were in a combat zone and so were many others and decisions right or wrong were made at the time so be it. Grind your axe for use against the government not your fellow veterans.
