What does "Support the Troops" mean?

43. One percent who do what others wouldn't dare!

We are those who do the ugly and the humanitarian things that our Commander in Chief (CINC) tells us to do. We rarely do it for that reason alone. The predominant reason is to protect each other and be at each other's side. Many of us are ignorant and believe what foolish politicians feed us and some of us don't. We all have what we consider an honorable and sacred duty in keeping with the oath we took. We are tools and all U.S. citizens have a responsibility to ensure that those using the tools are the right people for the job.
You don't have to like us, but realize that we must exist (however unpleasant the thought is) and we don't get to choose our missions. While some twist the words "support the troops" into supporting a political ideology, I would like to think smarter people know that brash young men and women who are brave and are easily impressionable, deserve your support nonetheless, for taking a step in doing what others won't. My brothers and sisters are noble and will sacrifice everything for each other! I love them for that and who they are; That is what support the troops really means! You don't have to show it, just know it. Semper-Fi
