" By SammiandBilly Couple (MF) just this minute! Blackpool Gonna cause a full scale riot here i know! but before anyone gets on their high horse its just my personal opinion which i believe i'm entitled to.. I'm sick sore an tired hereing about the armed forces and what they're doing in the name of "0ur" country but its NOT our war and never was! what about our firemen an women who put their lives on the line every day to try and save lives in "our" country where is their praise and honours? maybe i'm just bigoted being an ex fire fighter! but it just annoys me that they don't get any credit but do just the same service if not more than the armed services in Afghanistan or any other country that has f**k all to do with us! Billy " My dad was a fireman for thirty odd years and received a number of awards/commendations for bravery, as did my brother. I never heard either of them grousing about lack of recognition for what they did. While I don't neccessarily agree with our armed forces being in Afghanistan, I certainly am not sick of hearing about the bravery of our troops. | |||

Billy " Billy, I have been a serviceman for the last 35 years with more to come and I take this from your post "bigoted being an ex fire fighter!" I will run out of fingers if I try to remember all the times brave colleagues of mine have stepped into the breach while you lot were on the picket line whining about not being able to hold down 2 full time jobs as well as your fireman duties. Perhaps that's more the cause of your ire than anything else. | |||

Billy " Billy While i acknowledge that firemen do a great job there is no way you can equate the risk being faced by front line troops to the risk fireservice personal face,the statistical data just does not support it. Just the psychological effect of front line warfare is enough to elevate these people doing there duty into a different league and as a country we have to be behind them as they did not have a choice but to go,whether they felt it the right decision or not. I hate to bring in statistics when discussing brave people and i no way deny the emergency services there due. However,in my oppinion you can not draw a parralel with front line personal where every step on patrol might be their last it is simply a more intense and contant risk. The fireservice fatality statistics are on the brigade site . | |||

They (armed forces) decide to do the job so they take all the risks involved. What other industry do you get all this coverage just for doing your job??? but i'm not gonna get into a slagging match over it.. its christmas  | |||

Most jobs don't have people coming home in body bags "I would never place more importance on anyone that puts their lives on the line for people they dont know, they all deserve respect. I could never be in the military, but I'm glad some can. I could never be a fireman, but I'm glad some can. I could never be ambulance crew but I'm glad some can. I could never be in the police but I'm glad some can. I could never be a doctor/nurse but I'm glad some can. There are many many jobs I could not do, but I am glad there are people who can, and all of those deserve the utmost respect. I could never be a traffic warden ----- thats all   | |||

Most jobs don't have people coming home in body bags "But thats a risk they take when they sign up. I'm a driver, I could come home in a body bag, granted far less likely but still even a small chance, how much press coverage would I get???? | |||

And for every one poor lad in a coffin, there are so it seems a few maimed in the process. My hubby joined the RAF many years ago , as a child himself he was tempted by the lifestyle, the travel, the job he was about to do. Yes he signed up also knowing he may be used in a war, and no doubt all of those signed up now know there is going to be risks.........but lets be honest, there are more risks doing your job with bombs and bullets whistling around your head than driving a van. No one is saying whatever you do in life is as safe as houses, but what they do over there for their pennies is a damn site more dangerous. | |||
