Thank You, Tony for posting that video.

I have been sitting here for five minutes after watching it just absorbing what was said. Powerful is too weak a word.

This is an apolitical Forum so I won't write a long editorial.

I would only say I hope millions watch the video and think about what was said.

Bill

Having recently returned from a battlefield tour in Belgium (WW I) and France (WW 2), and fully realizing the utter futility and waste of human life, I must admit to tearing up when I watched this video.

George Santayana had it right when he said..."He who fails to learn from history is condemned to repeat it".

I'm no pacifist but, dammit, as the pop song goes..."when will we ever learn?"

Yes Bill, this being an apolitical forum, I'll end now.

Tony,
Thank you for posting the video. We as a nation, owe it to the men and women who have served, doing what few would do, and what fewer would admit to needing to be done, to see that they get every assistance to stop this epidemic. Far too many good people have taken that awful step to end their pain.
I will be calling my federal MP tomorrow.

Perry

Hi -Bill - Jon and Perry

I am happy that you appreciated the clip. I will always share something that I strongly believe should be seen or heard, remembering this forum is apolitical and we all respect each others views, but I have heard too many sad stories through our ex service community and I believed the song needed to be heard by all.

Cheers

Tony
