I am a retired army flight surgeon with a 40+ year history of serving in the US Navy and US Army. I began my service on board the USS Renville (APA 227) and was part of a Marine bat. which would have participated in the invasion of Cuba during the Cuban Missle Crisis. I completed military service in December of 2005 after completing a 13 month tour in Iraq (October 2004 to November 2005). I was attached to the 189th Blackhawk Bat.(Montana Army National Guard) with 225.6 hours of flying combat in a Blackhawk helicopter even spending time on the doorguns. I was proud to serve in the military and pray every day for our country which has been taken over by the secular tax and spend Democrats. God Help the USA!
