I have no idea how much influence The Horn has in the public square. I had never heard of it, actually, until I received an email containing the article I posted.

I am happy I was able to serve my country for 28.5 years. I’d do it again, under similar circumstances, but if I were of military age today, and knew what I know now, I’d certainly wait until President Trump was in office.

JFK was President when I enlisted (March, 1963) and America was a VERY different place - and we had a draft.

I wanted to be a Navy pilot, specifically, I wanted to fly the A-1 Skyraider. Once I was in flight training, there was no way I was not going to get my Wings of Gold!

So I hung in there through thick and thin - I enjoyed the good years and some good leadership; and endured the bad years and bad leadership. I did the best I could with what I had.

I’d do it all over again, but would wait, as I indicated, for The Donald!
