I am in the process of interviewing a submariner. Not just any submariner, but a nuclear submariner. Incredible interview. This should be enough to buy my upcoming book, Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of the trenches of life.

I also talked to a Vietnam veteran who is deciding if he will allow me to interview him. He has an amazing story. (He had a bayonet go through both legs in an one on one fight.)

I am so fed up with the war in Ukraine. I talked to a guy that is also fed up. He was very extreme.

” What we should do is have all the allies drop nuclear bombs on Russia at once. Total surprise, and they wouldn’t be able to defend it. Russia would not be a real nation after that. Just fragmentation.”

I didn’t even know how to respond! That would be awful. Millions of people dying, because of one man’s dictatorship. What about the fallout??

Three days ago I came down with COVID, my second time. Wednesday was a nightmare. I was so weak I could hardly go to the bathroom. When I did try I dribbled in my PJ’s all the way. I had no control. Very hopeless feeling.

Today I am much better! Got the right medicine. Feel 90% OK. My wife came down with it too.

Just finished an interview with the daughter of a WWII nurse. Some gripping thoughts there. The nurse, Velma Sundet was a hero to many soldiers during the war. She saved many lives.

I only have one other interview left. That is with a Gold Star father. I will be talking to him this week.

I have been following Putin’s war in Ukraine, and I am amazed that he is still trying to win. There are no winning plans left. He will lose and be dethroned as leader of Russia.

He needs to stop and have peace talks.

Unless...he uses Nuclear weapons. Then it is WWIII.
