I was honored when I went to get my COVID vaccine a couple years ago. I was in a huge line waiting my turn when a National Guard soldier came up to me and told me to follow him. He took me to a spot where I was next to get my shot. Probably was because I was wearing an Army hat, and was using a cane.

The military is getting weaker, because not enough civilians are enlisting. This will become a problem very quickly if this doesn’t turn around. They may have to start the draft again. The military changed my life in a very positive way. Please talk to some of your civilian friends to check into enlisting. They won’t regret it.

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.

It is very surprising to see how many veterans live near you. I found out that there are four veterans right on my street. I have connected, and we do things together.

Try doing the same. Ask every neighbor near you if the are a veteran. I think you might be surprised. If you have some get to know them and have “talk,” time.

There was a frightening video on the news the other day. It showed a Russian soldier running along a trench and is killed by a drone. The only soldier left beg to be captured to save his life. They let him be captured.

The drones will control future wars. I have no doubt in my mind that it will happen. This is good in some way. No lives are lost as a drone is doing its thing.

There could be a drone war. Drones attacking each other.
