"...we don’t need ribbons to know who we were or what we did."

Of course. "Off topic, have you seen the film K-19 The Widowmaker? Great cold war at sea film. And the Russky’s who went into the reactor to save their boat were heroes, commies or not."

Yes, very suspenseful movie, but don't know how much is factual. If it happened as portrayed, yes the Sailors were heroic. My favorite military film now: "13 Hours. The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi" based on the book written by three guys who survived. I will never forgive Hillary or Obama for not reacting to that cluster, especially after Ambassador Stevens had repeatedly requested more security.

Then there were the military brass who wouldn't authorize a fly-over or make a decision about what uniform to wear so as not to "escalate" the problem. Pfft.

Agreed. I’ve seen 13 Hours a bunch of times now. Great flick.
