Disagree. Retired Vet here (76-84 USN; 84-2000 USCG). I will NOT follow unlawful orders. The Oath I took has no expiration. I believe millions of my brother Vets are likewise as steadfast in their beliefs, and as resolved as I.

Your remarks are a blessing to me, and I pray that you’re right and I’m wrong. By the way, 8/4 is my birthday also!
