As an ex-military wife, mom, grandmother and widow, I agree wholeheartedly with you.
I finished a couple of history books on WWII in the Pacific Theater and I think we will never see that caliber of men on ships again. Viet Nam was almost as good, as far as men were concerned because of their role models, though VN was more of a ground war.
Then came the pacifists who thought their parents were the enemy, and that brings us to today. We need to bring back God in everything we do, every place we work, and never forget to defend the Constitution of the USA! (So let it be said, so let it be done. -- Yul Brynner as Pharoah)

You know, I have been thinking about this lately with respect to defending our nation. (Really defending it, not going to war over something like Ukraine)
I am not sure our country has that anymore. The Left has worked hard, very hard, to vilify our country in the eyes of our youth.
If something came up, say we had to go to war for a valid reason...would we be able to raise a military?
I am not sure we would. And that cuts me to the bone (if you see my Freep Page, you would, I think, understand why)
And by the way-thank you for your service as a military wife. The spouses of military personnel have never received the recognition due, because that can be a hard road in life. There are separations, disagreements over responsibilities, finances, child rearing, you name it. My parents went through it all and came out on the other side, as you sound you did.
God Bless you and yours, FRiend.
