I had the privilege to meet a Vietnam veteran while shopping for groceries. I seem to have the knack to find them. This guy is a true hero. His name is Milt Hoch. He had three tours in Vietnam. He didn’t have to. He chose to.

He was in intense fighting, even face to face fighting. He was once stabbed through both legs at once with a bayonet. He was still able to kill the enemy and survive.

I have an interview with him in my upcoming book, Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of the Trenches of Life. It is riveting.

It is interesting how few civilians seem to thank veterans who have served. zI don’t think they understand how much veterans go through during their service.

I did have a pleasant interaction with a young man while shopping. He went out of his way to thank me for my service. Made my day.

The way things are going in Ukraine, I feel that if Russia doesn’t use nuclear weapons they will lose. Also heard that a world crime charging inity has posted a warrant for Putin’s arrest for war crimes. He is dead meat no matter happens.

‘Living Legends’: Florida Man, 101, Honored as One of Nation’s First Black Marines

George J. Johnson was a Montford Point Marine, one of about 20,000 men who were pioneers in the Corps—the first Black men allowed to become part of the storied “few” and “proud” after President Franklin D. Roosevelt issued an executive order in 1941 prohibiting the armed services from barring African Americans from military duty.

If I was physically able to do so I would go back into the military. I would do it in a New York minute. I love my country, and would defend it to the end.

There seems to be a shortage of new recruits. We need to find ways to have more of them join.
