I don't mean anything about YOUR experience what exactly is YOUR experience that allows you to have such a strong opinion on the subject?

I don't really expect you to believe anything as you seem, and if I am wrong on this I apologize, to be rather closed minded on just about every subject.
I'm currently serving the country and grew up with my father career military, so I think I may know a little something about what PBS and other groups do for military families.
As is my long established policy, however, I will not give details as to my exact profession because I'd like to keep my identity private.

There's no comparison whatsoever between the support a Navy Marines Relief Society or Army Emergency Relief provides compared to PBS. I could probably name a dozen actual charities that actually do something measurable for Military families.
edit to remove last remark as is redundant due to above post.
