On this Veterans Day I wonder

Posted on 11/11/2020 10:40:22 AM PST by tayper

I'm beginning to wonder if I wasted a lot of my life serving in the military protecting the Constitution and the American People with what's going on now. Makes ya wonder and I don't think I'm alone!

You cannot go back in life.

YOU have to decide what to do with every day moving forward.

Probably not the answer you will get from everyone else. But its just as valid.

You did not.

And, my wife, children and I appreciate what you did.

Thank you!

Many of us actually voluntarily joined to help defeat the godless communist menace.

We didn’t even think to protect the rear.

We’ve been Ceasared.

I served my country and the American people, not the losers trying to destroy our country from within.

As much as I respect the rank-and-file military, I have told young men I know - do you want to join what’s becoming another woke government social-engineering agency, led by leftist political appointees, to get sent to shitholes like Afghanistan to cover their mistakes?

“Makes ya wonder and I don’t think I’m alone!”

You are not alone, 22 years here.

I tell my fellow Americans when I hear thank you, You can say thank you by respecting and standing up for our Democracy, Constitution, and laws.

I know I didn’t spend a year in the Nam for these BLM/antifa c***suckers. Or any vote scammers. The jihadis can blow them all up for all I care.

I believe we will each be judged by our intent and effort to do what’s right, and not by the results, which are often out of our control.

Wow you get knocked down once and you’re ready to start wondering? I’m a Marine and Army veteran and don’t regret or wonder about a minute of either hitch. Stop letting them put doubt in your mind. You performed a vital service to your country and every real American, including me, appreciates what you’ve done. Veteran to veteran, thank you for your service.

Every generation has the responsibility to do THEIR part to "protect and defend...".

Just saying.

"What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it.

You can only choose to do whats right when you are given decision points in life. A life of service to others, for their freedoms, for their safety and well being, for the love of country and God, is a righteous choice. You should never regret that.

Those that served in WWI and WWII served the country. For everything else, you served someone’s wishes.

In my opinion, the only legitimate wars from the last century were WWI and WWII. We shouldn’t have been anywhere else.
