The only good thing I can think off is they died so some of their comrades could come back home alive. What amazes me is they still allow their kids and grandkids to serve in the military. I guess the moral is the rich and influential will always [bleep] the poor.



You dont have a clue, do you?


i was talking with a client this morning of similar age about vietnam. I was at an induction center in 67 and was trying to enlist. Very much against the war, and politicians running it, but supportive of the military. Me being young figured the best way was to join. A trick blood pressure thing, not self induced, prevented it. The other factor which i didn't think of till later was the family doctor was head of the draft board, a trauma surgeon in europe during WWII, and knew my mom was a widow. I scored very high on the IQ placement test, and while probably lieing the people there told me i would go to the army security agency. Black kid and i were discussing it, told him i would probably end up at an embassy, james bond, don't you know?
I asked him where he would be, he said his butt would be in vietnam before the end of the year.
There is a monument in prescott on the courthouse square to those killed in vietnam. It to this day is hard for me to look at it, knowing the names of my friends that died there. I don't consider they died for nothing. For whatever reason, they died for their country, which to me was honorable. The politicians were not. Interesting enough, i have two grandsons now in service one in the navy, he is about to be stationed in a place where i wish he was not going to be stationed. The other is all star in the air force. I wish i could say what he is doing, because i am proud of him, but better not to say. With him he asked me before saying "i do" to uncle sam. We sat down and discussed the risks. I told him no matter what he was doing he was potentially placing his butt on the line. And i asked him if he remembered the spartans, and the quote come home with your shield, or on it. I told him i would never get over it if something happened to him, but i would be really dead if he lost his honor. He is in a high risk position in what he is doing to this day. He had his four year old son with him this weekend, and i was thinking what if he never saw his father, my grandson, in reality my son, never again. I still remember that spartan quote. They didn't die for nothing, they were just poorly used by politicians.

I think there are more Gypsies around than anyone knows. I see them all the time around here.....blacktopping, roofing, home repairs, and their favorite occupation, barn painting, with paint that's guaranteed to last a week, or until the first rain, whichever comes first.

Was watching a WWII series last night, hard to believe humans could do that.

As far as AOC goes, I find it amazing that no one gives a schit about what the kids were living like up to the point they hit the border, and now suddenly the US is inhumane. Give me a phuqqin break.

That is what our KOTY has said several times. Said they mostly died of typhoid due to lack of medical supplies.

Most? No. Nearly every single one of the heaps of bodies that you see in the films made by American troops? Yes. Americans did not liberate any death camps or extermination camps. We liberated work and concentration camps where large numbers of prisoners from the east had been evacuated ahead of the Russians and there was a typhoid outbreak.

As far as I know, we don’t have any footage from the Russians about what they found at the camps in the East immediately when they got there.

Reading a book about Patton, and it started early. He was accused of being an anti-Semite in the US press because he protested the US policy of putting only Jews who survived the camps in the homes of displaced Germans. His quote was, “What about the Catholics, the Poles, and the others?”

This is a good series.

They explain all the groups that were held in the camps. It is well done.

The left, democrats, liberals, communist, socialist, islamites, the news media, and globalist are working with the social media in this country in collusion with our enemies, Russia and China, to affect the elections. Unfortunately it is nearly all of our social media that is affected.
