There's ALOT of brave men and women stepping up to the plate. My husband(who is getting deployed in Feb), had just turned 40 years old when he signed on the dotted line our son also joined. So anyone who says anything demeaning feel free to stand in front of our troops if you feel you can't stand beside them! People should ban together to support ... Read Morepeople in our armed forces instead bs about what they think they should or shouldn't do. These men and women who join know what they are getting into and know there is a huge risk; it's to bad people can't just pat them on the back, ask them and/or their families if there's anything they need and be thankful because of their sacrafices we have the freedoms we do. After all freedom isn't FREE!

ok first off the movie was good. now on to the real issue, what happened when the solider killed 5 fellow american soliders; this is a sad situation and my deepest sympathies for the families. i dont mean to sound like a bit ch but this is a fact of war. we make soldiers/ aka warriors. they are made to kill. its a fact of war, its sad when it ... Read Morehappens but these soliders loose themselves when they are trained to kill sometimes they forget who they are fighting and they turn on their own. i definately think the man should be held accountable for his actions but this has happened since the beginning of time, other wars as well and no one acknowledes it. it is a fact of war, it happens so if we arent prepared for friendly fire or post tramatic stress syndrome then u need to leave the pit. this is war

The same soliders are getting deployed over and over again; this is a senseless tragedy that could have been avoided. Instead of allowing this solider to leave the counseling center he should have been made to stay there and cool off. Pointing the finger and saying it's a part of war holds NO consultation to the families who lost someone or to the ... Read Morefamily of the solider who did the shooting. Soldiers need the proper counseling and support in order to get through the things they see and hear.....deployment after deployment and sweeping it under the carpet isn't the way to deal with it. That's just my opinion, right, wrong or indifferent.

Stop-Loss ... And The Terry Award Winners ...

We celebrate the 25th anniversary of honoring all those who 'coulda been a contender’

Rachel McAdams’ feisty “Lucky Ones” soldier and Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s haunted “Stop-Loss” casualty reflect opposite sides of the Iraq War. Chiwetel Ejiofor’s martial arts warrior in “Redbelt” and Brad Pitt’s dim-bulb “Burn After Reading” conspirator also earn Terry Awards acclaim, along with Jeffrey Wright as the man who built “Cadillac Records,” Muddy Waters. And let’s not forget “Revolutionary Road’s” tortured golden couple: Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet, winners both.
