I have been mentioning to you for the last couple weeks that the format for this site will be changed by the 1st of February. I think you will like it even more than what you see now.

I will still have up to date military news, but then I will switch to talking about you and your needs.

The reason the site is doing so well is that so many of you are Subscribing. Let me show you an example.

On New Year’s Day there were 10,639 subscribers. This morning there are 11, 020. An awesome increase of almost 400 in just 20 days. That means people like what is being said, I am sure you will like it even more under the new format.

So stay tuned and subscribe today if you haven’t already. You will get all future posts in your inbox. You will not be sorry you did. Please tell others about this site as well.

This is the last post before the inauguration on Wednesday. I hope there will not be any bad news from that day. I live in Salem, Oregon, which is the state capital of Oregon. Protesters are already starting to show up and they are carrying weapons.

They are peaceful at the moment, but I am afraid they will have plans for Wednesday.

The Capital is well fortified this week. Hopefully the show of force will cause the protesters to stay peaceful.

___________________________________

In our nation’s capital 25,000 National Guard troops have been called up to protect the capital. That is five times more troops than there are in Afghanistan, and Iraq combined.

High fences have been put up. Windows covered. The congress men and women have been put on alert.

The actual inauguration site is also well fortified. They are only allowing a few people to come, and they will be spaced apart correctly.

This is be the most unusual inauguration in the history of our country.

I heard a person say, “If they need that many troops there, it must be the wrong person becoming president.”

I ungently ask you not to go to any capitals and protest. There will be clashes, and people hurt.

I had a great experience with the Oregon National Guard on Thursday. They are doing vaccine shots for the COVID virus at our State fairgrounds, which is in my home city of Salem.

My wife and I went to try to get a dose. There were thousands trying to get into the parking lots. There were directors moving cars in the right direction.

We parked our car and saw people running to a building. We knew that was where they were giving the shots.

We got to the end of the line and I had my walker, because it was going to be a long wait, and could sit down.

I did set down, because the race to get to the building, exhausted me. I also had my Army hat on.

Then out of no where a PFC National Guardsman came through the crowd and told me and my wife to follow him. He took us to a side door and escorted us to a side area where they were giving shots for those who may have handicaps.

We sat down, and five minutes later we got our shots. There were hundreds of people waiting for the shots, and we were done in less than an hour.

Did the walker cause this soldier to feel pity, or was it the Army hat he could see in the mob of people?

I think it was both. It was a brother helping another brother.

When we left there were still people in line outside that were in the line when we were there.

Maybe it was not fair to get moved up in front of so many people. Some of you may think so, but there was a caring trooper that made it all possible.

A very busy day in the military.

What is your feeling about what is going on in our country? Upset? Don’t care? Want to do something about it?

I am two of the above three. I am very upset, and I want us to do something about it.

___________________________________

I am reminding you again that the format on this site will be changing soon. The projected date is February 1st. I will slowly let you know the changes so that you won’t go into shock when it changes.

Most of the site will be allocated to reaching out to hurting veterans, and military. The is such a need to do that, and I don’t see many places doing just that.
