Reply #41: If wishes were horses, then beggars would ride

Old Irish saying!!!

Look at it as an opportunity to educate...all you can do is put it out there, people will believe what they wish, even in the face of harsh facts and simple reality. And some may be genuinely mistaken, there is a massive lack of knowledge throughout this country on the roles and missions of the military, because so few people serve in it and the tradition from WW2, Korea and Vietnam are really gone, what with the AVF, and a smaller sized force compared to days gone by.

Do not let it ruin your day, it is not worth it.
