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.

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 seems that Putin is a mad man wanting war so he can gain power. It is not working for him. Some say he will fight till he death. I think that is coming soon.

When I was deployed to South Korea I found out that the people there were mostly friendly. They were glad we were there to protect them. There were a few who didn’t like us there, and they threw rocks at our vehicles.

I want to remind you that you should never give up on trying to get compensation from the military. They tend to deny automatically when you first apply. There are groups that can help you apply.

House GOP demands visitor logs in Biden classified docs case

House Republicans on Sunday demanded the White House turn over all information related to its searches that have uncovered classified documents at President Joe Biden’s home and former office in the wake of more records found at his Delaware residence.

_______________________________________________________________

Interesting that the White House thinks it is not as serious to find classified documents in Biden’s residences. They still think Trump’s documents are much worse. A clear cover up in my opinion.

Russia is going all out in its attack on Ukraine. Rumors are that they are running out of weapons; their military is freezing to die, and thousands are dead. Not a nice picture for Russia.

Japan and the United States have become close allies. They are training together and planning for the future. Quite a switch since WWII.
