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.

Keep coming back to find what new interviews I may be having.

I am hearing too much about aircraft crashing and killing the soldiers inside. There needs to be a much stricter maintenance done on the aircraft. Most reports say there was a faulty part for the cause. They need to do a complete check up everyday before take off. Too much work? You are saving lives when you do.

I have a friend who served in Vietnam. He was wounded and refuses to get the Purple Heart. I have talked to him many times, and he still refuses to get it. He says there were too many generals that just had a hang nail so they could get theirs.

In my opinion, that has nothing to do with my friend. He was really wounded and deserves it.

Still working on it.

President Biden has authorized the use of Cluster Bombs for Ukraine to use. They are deadly bombs. When they hit they spread out many small bombs to kill anything near them.

Is this a right thing to do? Actually they have been used in Iraq, and Afghanistan. There is nothing illegal about them unless they are used on civilians. These will be used to hit the trenches of the Russian front.
