Military news…

First one is a little funny to me.

An 84-year-old man in Germany has been ordered to pay a fine of 250,000 euros after he was discovered to have an arsenal of World War II-era weapons in his cellar. The arsenal included a 40-ton Panther tank, one of the best tanks of the war.

U.S. Air Force B-52 bombers and AC-130 gunships are back dropping airstrikes on Afghanistan in an attempt to stop the Taliban’s blitzkrieg throughout the country. But so far, it does not appear to be working: at least five more of Afghanistan’s 17 provincial capitals have fallen to the Taliban over the past week.

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin will ask for President Joe Biden’s approval by mid-September to make the COVID-19 vaccines mandatory. But it might be a lot easier said than done.

________________

U.S. service members could face a range of punishments, including administrative separation and court-martial, for refusing to get the COVID-19 vaccine once it becomes mandatory. Commanders have a “range of tools to try to help individuals make the right decisions,” Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said on Tuesday.

________________

Starting in October, the Air Force will break with decades of tradition by allowing its members to put their hands in their pockets while in uniform. The change is one of many grooming and uniform updates that loosen up restrictions for airmen (several of which involve hair).

I have been connected with a SFC in Kabul, Afghanistan. She is fearful that the city will be over run soon. She is very brave to be one of the last of the military still there. However, if the city is finally overrun, she is in a big harms way. The Taliban have no sense of mercy, and she will be killed.

I will keep you updated. We talk daily.

I saw a report on the new Apache helicopter. It will be awesome is much more deadly. It has tracking devices where no one can hide from them at all.

I have a buddy who was in Vietnam and he was a helicopter pilot. Great stories from him.

I am reminding you that I stopped sharing excerpts from my upcoming book, Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of th Trenches of Life.

If you want to read some of them, you will have to go to the archives to find them.

I am sure you will enjoy the book when it does come out. It is full of stories of my time in the military, and I share hope for those suffering from anxiety, fear, PTSD, TBI, and war wounds.

Very Disturbing News Concerning Our Military

Very disturbing military news…

The military’s top general was forced to admit something terrible about Joe Biden

“When I first was elected vice president with President Obama, the military sat us down to let us know what the greatest threats facing America were — greatest physical threats. This is not a joke,” Biden stated. “You know what the Joint Chiefs told us the greatest threat facing America was? Global warming.”

North Dakota Republican Senator Kevin Cramer asked Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley if he agreed with Biden.

General Milley – who is one of the “Woke” generals that regularly undermined Donald Trump – was forced to admit – in the gentlest way possible – that Joe Biden had no idea what he was talking about saying Russia and China were far bigger threats to the U.S. military.

“Climate change does impact, but the president is looking at a much broader angle than I am. I’m looking at it from a strictly military standpoint. And from a strictly military standpoint, I’m putting China, Russia up there,” General Milley stated.

But Senator Cramer was not buying that Biden’s remarks for claiming that so-called “climate change” was a bigger threat to American troops than China or Russia.

“I just think it’s peculiar that the president would go to another continent and tell our service members there that the number one threat is climate change,” Senator Cramer stated.

Shocking: Radical Left Brainwashing Our Military

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) speaks during a hearing to examine United States Special Operations Command and United States Cyber Command in review of the Defense Authorization Request for fiscal year 2022 and the Future Years Defense Program, on Capitol Hill in Washington on March 25, 2021.

In a Senate hearing with Austin, Cotton claimed that within the military, there’s “plummeting morale, growing mistrust between races and sexes where none existed just six months ago and unexpected retirements and separations based on these trainings alone.”

One whistleblower, Cotton alleged, said that military history training was replaced with training about police brutality, “systemic racism,” and “white privilege.” Another said that his unit had to read “White Fragility” by feminist author and critical theory proponent Robin DiAngelo, according to the senator.

In May, the Space Force confirmed it relieved Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier, a former instructor and fighter pilot, as commander of the 11th Space Warning Squadron. While it didn’t specifically name the reason why Lohmeier was terminated, the Space Force cited comments made by Lohmeier during a podcast in which he denounced CRT and warned about the spread of Marxism within the Space Force’s ranks.

Cotton suggested that claims the military is attempting to foster diversity with such training are incorrect.

“[It’s] about a very specific kind of anti-American indoctrination that is seeping into some parts of our military, based on the whistleblower complaints we have received,” he said.

Those two articles send up huge warning signals for our military. I just can’t feel that President Biden is supporting our military very much.

Today is American Flag Day. Those of us from the military completely understand the importance of our flag. I get goose bumps every time they play the National Anthem.

Unfortunately there are some to use our flag for political reasons. They even burn it and laugh. They aren’t true Americans. They are people who want to be on TV, and make havoc.

God bless America and our flag. May she wave for ever.

I am very upset with President Biden. He made the National Guard sleep in a parking lot on the hard floor. He then told them to leave. That is showing no respect for our military what so ever.

Quote from one of the Guard members, “I felt like it was garbage day and I was the trash.”

__________________________________

President Biden has only been office a few days, and he has already signed a bunch of executive orders. Many wipes out much of what President Trump accomplished.

What makes me the most angry is that he is halting the building of the wall between our borders with Mexico.

He also is stopping the pipeline that was vital to so many workers. They will all be unemployed soon.

I guess we will have to see the how the people respond to this massive change.

___________________________________

Now that biden is president, he will see that some things will not change even with him there, There were massive, violent, rioting in Seattle and Portland, Oregon during his first week. He will probably think they were peaceful.

___________________________________

This will somewhat short today. I am not feeling well. My doctor sent me to do some blood testing and the results had several abnormal results. Something’s not right with this old body.
