The REAL motto of the Pentagon, VA, & White House has been not "Support . . . " but rather "F**k the Troops!" Journalist Glantz explains the ways they do so. Fighting troops are treated shoddily, injured troops (no longer useful to them) worse, and veterans worst of all. Hence all the suicides, homelessness, & untreated PTSD. Then I show that this has been true for a century, with a recording from 1971 and a reading from Smedley Butler
