During my last cruise, the Navy had a reward for ‘squid of the week’ or something. They had a shoot-ex off the fantail. No big deal until they pulled a pristine Thompson out and blasted away. I could have gone squid for a day for a couple mags. Beautiful sound.

Pinging the list, freepmail to get on/off. I tried to find the Q meme with “God chose you for a reason” or something like that, and couldn’t find. Anyone have it or remember it?

PEPE LIVES MATTER

OCT 22, 2023

It can be frustrating to turn on your favorite social media news pages just to find more dreary and dreadful news regarding war, two-tiered justice, and empty promises from both sides of the uniparty. It can gnaw at your soul and wear you down to the point of exhaustion.

Few have been so awake in the history of our world because of this instant access to media from thousands of sources but this can take a toll.

Many of you, like me, have been following the news as closely as a normie follows their favorite sports team for over five years. We’ve been cheering on our favorite white hats, exposing corruption, doing our own digs into subjects that fascinate us, and calling for the world to shake off its slumber.

We’ve been praying to God like those in the book of Revelation: How long oh Lord until (justice comes).

We’ve been like watchmen on the wall, peering into the enemy’s camps and ruining their psyops for thousands, planting seeds that irritate the powers that be.

As predicted by many, we’ve come closer to the precipice of destruction than many feel comfortable with. The sheep have discerned little but they understand that the world is in seeming chaos yet when Trump was in public power; the world had relatively few physical conflicts. Despite the fact that with his emergence came the real (hidden) world war we’ve been accustomed to viewing. It was all about the globalist cabal and their agenda for a totalitarian system of control subjecting us as pawns and slaves in their system. Americans feel they are slaves to no man given the history of their forefathers.

So the banking regime sought to undermine the masses under the shadow of night. Few even understand what Babylon is or how much greater the world could be without these archaic systems designed to feed the insatiable appetite of people given to pure evil. Without them, perhaps the planet would find a prosperous world, and, in fact, the book of Isaiah talks of such a time. The lion lying down with the Lamb.

Because we see this potential, we’ve believed for it to come to pass and that has given us both hope and heartache. It hurts the heart to watch such evil prosper and perhaps it can cause bitterness witnessing the ignorance of man to this truth. Sheep led to the slaughter. How can such a thing be happening? How can we find our way out? Perhaps God wants us to feel that deep down in our bones so that we may stand in awe when He accomplishes a purpose only He can do through His power.

As Babylon rages and tears, as the precipice inches ever closer, never forget to cling tightly to the one who opened your eyes in the first place. It was God. This truly is a spiritual war, we know this more than most.

Take your eyes and put them above the clouds.

Sing songs of gratitude when you feel no hope. Defy the powers that be by praising God in the face of weakness.

Sometimes doing ship repair stuff we had to move a submarine small arms locker——to get to a pipe or wire or something. The last thing sub crews cared about was what was in the arms locker especially updating the stuff. Well into the 70’s a typical locker would have maybe 4 1911’s, six M1 Garands, 2 Thompsons, 2 Winchester 1897’s, and one or two 1919 A1”s. Hard to stop drooling and just fix the ship. One young sailor, so happy I helped him out of a spot, was doing his locker inventory and traded me a box of Winchester 12ga OO buck , brass cased shells, for a commercial box-—I think I still have them.

Xone - Is it true the Marines think of the Navy as their Uber?
