Are all Vets Heroes?

Or does throwing that term around too casually serve a different purpose, besides undermining those truly heroic who served in the ranks?

Is your local library wittingly or unwittingly contributing to the potential problem by carrying books like these?

Is there a children's book that could reinforce the message in this book, which explores the value of progagandizing children to accomplish the war goals of the state?  The War for Peace starts young and locally.
