[November 12, 2021] No, we are not brave! This admission may come as a shock to many, but nearly every person I’ve ever met, whether in the military or civilian life, are cowards, and so am I. We put up a good front, of course, and we do this by talking big, owning cool stuff, and belonging to… Read More »
[November 11, 2021] For more than two centuries, ordinary men and women held their hands up as they were sworn to “protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” From that small beginning, our Veterans began a journey that took them where very few go. Why do people, and our society, look up to our Veterans? The… Read More »
[November 10, 2021] I was handed the answer to a common question. What is a Veteran? The answer is by Father Denis Edward O’Brien. While I could not confirm Father O’Brien actually wrote this, I did find the answer enlightening. In preparation for Veterans Day tomorrow, I thought this most appropriate. Some veterans bear visible signs of their… Read More »
[November 9, 2021] Our Drill Sergeants in Basic Combat Training took sadistic pleasure in screaming at us raw recruits … at least it seemed that way. After a long march or any similar difficult task, they would say to us, “time for a gut check.” In other words, they wanted to know if we had the intestinal fortitude… Read More »
[November 8, 2021] I have a general rule that I don’t argue with close-minded people. Good counsel says, “Never wrestle with a pig, you both get dirty, and the pig likes it.” And for that reason, I also rarely offer advice. In today’s article, I will tackle the problem of arguing with or giving advice to “woke” teenagers.… Read More »
[November 7, 2021] I know what you’re thinking; our education system in American is a target-rich environment for bashing. That is undoubtedly tempting, but my purpose here is to show a few reasons why school choice works and that mandatory public school education may not be the best path for the future of any country. We hear a… Read More »
[November 6, 2021] America is undoubtedly the land of the free and a nation that rewards those that work hard. I live in the state of New Jersey. Waking up Wednesday morning, I had an email from a friend who wrote that NJ Democrat Senator Steve Sweeney lost the election to a Republican trucker driver named Edward Durr.… Read More »
[November 5, 2021] America’s senior Generals and Admirals (both active and retired) have failed the United States. This can be witnessed in their dysfunctional and dangerous behavior. We can see it in their rapid drift away from their sworn duty to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. America’s military has one mission; to protect the… Read More »
[November 4, 2021] I’ll begin with the caveat that Michael Goodwin would probably disagree with the title of today’s article. He would not consider himself a “political leader.” If I had to describe his political views, I would say he is a conservative, but that might be misleading. Mr. Goodwin is the New York Post’s chief political columnist… Read More »
[November 3, 2021] Why can’t the U.S. military find good men for great leader jobs? You know why. A decade of “woke” (political progressive activism) mandates, posturing, and propaganda has had its way with our young men. The results are predictable. Throw in suppression of free speech, destruction of the nuclear family, easy drugs, a victimhood culture, and… Read More »
