Well, during the Cold War, America certainly held the moral high ground, being the greatest civilization, the greatest achievement mankind ever hoped to aspire to. Made it our duty to confront and defeat the evil of global communism.
Now, with a country that elected twice a Marxist community-organizer as president, a corrupt socialist banana-republic of a government, no sovereignty via open-borders, and a noxious, faggotized culture that is not just putrid but morally bankrupt, America has become too decayed and too degenerate to enter into the same kind of Cold War dynamic. I don’t trust this country’s leaders, nor do I trust this country’s populace anymore. Not like I would have in the decades that followed WW2.
You can apply for your Cold War Recognition Certificate, and if you are from Texas or Alaska, and served in the National Guard, then you can receive a Cold War Victory Medal
I know that, but she is a female, why should she have ever enlisted?
Who attacks females for not being warriors?
No that was the oppressive ideology of American communists who supplied the Soviets with nuclear secrets.
I live in Texas.
The National Guard? Please?!
I do not need a certificate or medal to know when I served or need recognition of same. ;-)
Apparently you have missed my point entirely.
Right now I have no idea what you are upset about.
You are just acting weird, there was a Cold War, look it up.
You might want to look into the history of the Texas National Guard also.
Who is upset?
Yes, I know that the “Cold War” was a phrase invented by a communist member of the MSM school of journalism and the rest of the communist press jumped on the bandwagon.
All I am saying is that it was not a cold war at all. It was always HOT. To use the phrase, “Cold War” is a misnomer.
You have missed my point. ;-)
Why would I want to look into the history of the Texas National Guard when I was born and raised here and had hours of history class about the state of Texas?
I was born and raised in Texas as well, but I never heard of lessons on the state National Guard, I sure did hear about the Cold War though.
That is why the military, both federal and Texas, issues “Cold War” awards.
I am not going to get into a discussion of semantics with you. It seems that you are the one who is upset. ;-)

Christine, you were not in the military during those times. There was never a cold war. It was always hot. Ask any veteran who served during those times.

The term is Cold War, why fault any writer or historian for using its name, and why go after this female for not being a veteran?

That’s true, and it’s why I’m surprised that they’re allowed to hang around here. They’ll quote any source that’s anti-American and believe any poppycock that’s anti-American. They’re presenting a bad image of what patriotic American conservatives believe.
I did serve then. So you’re wrong again.
“I did serve then. So youre wrong again.”
Wrong? Do you understand the connotation when a sentence starts with the word, ‘if’? ;-)
