You got in prior to the day care center army. Must have been nice not to have to deal with it.

Well, yeah, sort of.

I saw what Golden Triangle heroin did to our troops while I was in Vietnam.

I remember the end of the draft ad campaign “Today’s Army Wants to Join You” in the 70’s.

I watched pregnant female `soldiers’ in Germany in early 1980’s who would have been worse than useless if the Soviets attacked.

I had a break in service and when I came back in, in 1995, things were vastly different.

I’m grateful to be part of the Total Force at this late date (warrant officers can serve till we’re older than dirt) when the public supports us and the soldiers are the very finest.

And in my last two years I will watch as the current POTUS tries to top Jimmah Carter in destroying our military effectiveness. For the children, of course.
