I’m getting emotional after looking at my sons ( I consider my son’s brothers-in-arms my sons) without their weapons ready and I think about the guys in Afghanistan having to go on patrol with their hands tied with their ROE, and more so of the 1/8 Marines in Beirut who were in the same situation as the ambassador in Benghazi.
Those Marines in the parade are willing to die for the one who ordered their bolts removed.
This is unacceptable.
I got to clean the guns, LOL, they want me to feel useful.
