Yes. That's because it's compounded by the weasel language. I remember the veteran who stopped me at the Cobalt Legion. I thanked him for his service, and he said, “For what?” I said, “Well, you fought in the Korean War,” and he said, “Aha, I fought in the Korean War, but it wasn't a war.” I asked, “What do you mean?” and he said, “It was a police action.” I asked what that meant, and he said, “Well, that was the weasel language that robbed me of a proper pension.” I remember the fight to change that. Now we have “special duty” and all kinds of language. However, the fact is this: When you're facing combat, you're facing combat.
I think of the situation in the Medak Pocket, which was the biggest land battle Canadians fought since Korea. It was heavily traumatic. I don't even know what language they used for that, but it was a war. That was full-on war, and yet people came home after those units were broken up and were not recognized for what they'd done.
You talked about the fine print. The fine print has to be, “When you serve the country, we look after you.” It should be that simple, whatever the cost, because the cost has been paid with the lives of the people we sent to represent us and do their best, which they always do.
