Thanks to all that served. I would do it all again, but not under the current woke leadership.

Thank you and all the other veterans for service to our country. Would I do it all over again, damn right, but I qualify that statement with I would not do it now considering the way the military has turned its attention from defending our country to being as woke as can be.

That's rather a large insult those those faithful sailors, soldiers, airmen, Coast Guardsmen, and Marines on active duty.

First time in country: December '63
Last time in country May 11, 1973
