Eskimo,

He meant military vets, not looney bin vets.
DEFINITION OF A VETERAN
A Veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life."

Possibly the biggest celebrity of all time was once in the US Army.

Was looking around and found out Don Adams
Whom most will remember as Maxwell Smart in the TV show "Get Smart"
was a Marine.

LOL somehow I just find it hard to envision Don Adams as a Marine
Death is no easy answer
For those who wish to know
Ask those who have been before you
What fate the future holds
It ain't pretty

Did you guys know that John Kerry was in Vietnam? :) You probably didn't know that, as Kerry is generally too modest to bring up his "war hero" status.
