I read this in a manuscript I’m working on. A Korean War Vet who had no interest in fighting, but went because his country asked him to, said of patriotism in modern American culture:
I fear that people are getting so caught up in … personal freedom to do anything they want at any time, that the love for their fellow man and their country has fallen by the wayside.
Well said, sir. God bless you, and thank you for serving.
