Gender Dysphoria Mental illness is serious and most often results in suicide. We need to pray that God delivers him from this delusion

You’re most welcome. Trial and error. HTML is not my strong suit.

Back on topic- what a patriot!

Who is Audie Murphy?

**********

I’m guessing you weren’t born until the late 50s
or didn’t go the the movie theater. Audie made
movies from 1948 until 1969. Forty eight total
over that span. Plus many tv shows as guest, etc.

Speaking of Transgender, I read the other day a Navy Seal who I think was on Seal Team Six came out as a trans woman and reported for duty in a skirt.....

Seriously? MOH recipient and the most highly decorated soldier in WW-11, who played himself in the major war movie ‘To Hell and Back’. Another true American hero!

I’ve been on a MACV-SOG binge on YouTube

Not that I’m an expert but those guys in my opinion are the baddest assed kids who ever walked through the valley of the shadow of death and feared no evil

Over and over and over and over for months and months...3-4 missions a week ....

Them and the King Bees

And with far less tech and precision

Just pure balls

Some of the rescue missions were basically if I can wrangle a King Bee indig pilot to get me there I’ll rappel alone into canopy at night into multiple firefight with CAR to help my downed buddie

After two King Bees are already down.....NVA battalion strength or more port arms headed down the hill towards your position

I get sweaty palmed just reading like watching Alex Honold climb

All these men are badass

Trenches

Bastogne or Okinawa

Chosin

A Shau

Fallujah and northeast Afghanistan

Take your pic

But the Vietnam era MACVSOG guys were just .....cowboys....in a good way...
I don’t think they techniques would fly today

Wonder how sneaky Pete is...was he MACVSOG or Company SAD?

I know SEALS in Indochina were lean and mean.....and effective

I am a female that thinks about war tactics (NO women in combat, etc. though), etc. I don’t read specific battle histories etc. though due to them being too graphic for me to handle, so I don’t often come across specific heroes’ names from wars America is in/has been in.

Amazing how a young man, with boyish good looks at 5'5" and diminutive physique could be such a warrior. With all the horror he encountered, he put it behind and became an actor among other things. So many from WWII had battle-shock (now PTSD) and couldn't function after the war. My infantry combat Father told me of such. Many were sent to the rear echelon.

The above is why I respect Marine/Army ground troops over all other Branches, even my Navy being chased by Soviet subs itching to send us to the bottom. Of course there were some horrendous Naval battles in the Pacific and Army Air Corps air battles over the European theater. So kudos to them, too.

A 2020 film called, "The Outpost" is currently on Netflix or maybe Amazon Prime. It's as well done or more as I've seen with Bengazi; Secret Soldiers or Black Hawk Down. Some idiot positioned this post in a "killing zone" in a small valley surrounded by mountains. After the final attack by a massive Taliban army and a win by the soldiers with late air support, it was demolished as were all such outposts that were vulnerable. It's pretty authentic and not for the weak of stomach. We lost 8 with multiple injuries when the Taliban penetrated the fence. Two of the soldiers got living MOH. Others received Silver Stars and such.

Good comments on this that state it as well as I can. I will add that as I write this, the new BS woke fvk narrative is abolishing and canceling “white saviors”. There are some American haters and self loathing miscreants who should not have the American PRIVILEGE anymore.
