Really, don't get me wrong, I do like animals, but aren't we taking this a bit too far?

The poll is not going to be representative because most people who are not vets will not vote.

My stepmom at the time tried pushing me into joining, but i didn't want any part of it. Never interested me, even though i was glued to CNN during the first gulf war?
Out of my family, only my brother served in the Army. I think he was in Germany (before the wall fell). He use to tell me about the bodies they would have to scrape off the autobahn (he was an MP). Probably was full of shit!

No polls here are representative.
For me they are sport.

Not me. Unlike my brother, the James Herriot books didn't inspire me to become one.
