Everything that could go wrong seems to be happening in the Ukrainian war. Massive Russian death totals, tons of equipment destroyed, many Russian soldiers captured. It seems like Ukraine is winning the war.
Putin has gone crazy, and can’t be controlled. There is fear that he will use nuclear weapons to try to win. Then we will be in WWIII.

Military veterans express support for extremism at low rates and are less likely to back far left movements or white supremacist groups than the general U.S. population, according to a new survey.
Margie Taylor’s son, Spc. Joey Lenz, was a generator mechanic assigned to the 3rd Brigade Combat Team of the 1st Cavalry Division at Fort Cavazos when he died Feb. 1, 2022, of a heart attack. She thinks his life could have been saved.
About 400 Ukrainian troops are currently getting a variety of training at U.S. military run bases in Germany in preparation of eventually operating Abrams tanks.
Ukraine’s air force said that Saturday night was also record-breaking in terms of Shahed drone attacks across the country. Of the 54 drones launched, 52 were shot down by air defense systems.

America Faces a Tidal Wave of Aging Veterans, Including a 237% Increase in Women Over 65 by 2041
I was amazed how much I “Grew up,’ while in the military. I signed up when I was 18 years old. Never have had alcohol to drink, and had never left my home town. Boy, was I in for a surprise!
I had basic training with little problems. I went MOS training and little happened.
Then I was deployed to South Korea. My world changed completely after that.
On the way over there in a ship, we stopped at Naha, Okinawa. LORDY! I looked down the main street, and every building had a red light outside of it. There was a prostitute outside each building trying to get you to come in and have sex with them. It was sin city. I sat down with some buddies, and they tried to get me to test the waters. I was too shy and scared to do that.
Everyone my table got up and went with a prostitute. I decided that this was a losing trip for me.
Then when I got to South Korea, all Hell broke loose. As I was putting things away in my bunk area two guys came walking in and were very friendly, They invited me to go with them to The Camp bar.
That night I went with them to see what was going on, and to gain new friends.
It was ten cent night. Meaning everything there was only ten cents. My new friends convinced me to try a drink they like. I hesitated and then realized that making new friends was important. They got the drinks and sat down. They handed me the drink and it looked dark gray, and a big glass.
They talked me into trying a sip. I did and my throat exploded, and I felt the drink going down to my stomach. They laughed, and said “Welcome to Korea. ” They later told me that the drink was a Zombie. I stayed with them the rest of the night. I got extremely drunk. I then had a blackout. I woke up several hours later lying next the wheel of a 1/2 ton truck.
Come back to read more of my adventures, and see chapters from my upcoming book, called, Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of The Trenches of Life.
There are many more stories of my time in Korea, plus Ft Bragg, North Carolina

I am pretty close to the end of my rope. The pain from my right hip just hangs on day after day. Most pills do not help. I take on that helps a little, but I am trying not to use it, because it is addictive.
I have an appointment coming up with a pain managing clinic. I will see what they can do for me. Meanwhile, I need to step up my doctor suggested exercises to strengthen my body for surgery.
I have decided that I will keep the names of who are close friends on RallyPoint, and ask them to help in the sale of my upcoming book, Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of theTrenches of life. Keep coming back to see the progress on that book. Better yet, go to the top of this page and click on Subscribe. When you do all future posts will go directly to your inbox.
