Never give up. I'm old. Do you know how easy it would be for me to sit back and say I quit. Chances are I won't live long enough for it to get really bad. Reality is it's not about me. I'm a patriot. I was raised to salute the flag, that pledge of allegiance I made actually means something and that the united States of America is the greatest country on the planet. To sit back and let it fall goes against everything I believe in. My sweet little granddaughter at 10 years old is truly the most innocent loving person I have known in my lifetime. She is so inherently good she doesn't see evil in anyone or anything. She can and will find good in every situation. I cannot/will not let them destroy her and the other innocents like her. I will do whatever is necessary to take my country back! Stand up! Make the commitment! If our fore father's had given up we wouldn't have a country. NEVER back down. You are a patriot!

My husband and many of our friends are vietnam era vets. I have seen with great sorrow the treatment of these great veterans on their return home from war. My husband enlisted, many were drafted. They fulfilled their responsibility to our country honorably. They were forgotten by both the american people and our government. The neglect and mistreatment of our older veterans continues. I have seen the va hospitals do everything in their power to not treat victims of agent orange.
Many people for many years enlisted to escape different situations. That is irrelevant. You did a service for the american people. In the meantime you made great friends. You strengthen your character. And yes I do not know of one single veteran who did not thoroughly enjoy at least some portion of his service. You are not so different from the ones who came before you as you may believe.
And those who spat on them in airports are the ones who orchestrated this election steal.
my Uncle died because of that war. God bless him he was such a young, strong, kind hearted young man when he left....I miss him.
The VA finally admitted AO caused illness. I believe the list now is up to 12 maladies ranging from skin cancer to multiple heart issues. There are some additional hoops to jump through and a lot of appointments but they're getting through then. I'm fairly familiar with the process by now, I've helped one vet get 100% and another i helped apply and he should be getting close to 100% as well. Feel free to msg me if you'd like any more into.
Thank you fren! Your efforts are much appreciated.
friggin DOW chemical should've been tried for war crimes for dioxin alone, let alone everything else they've done.
