Thank a soldier

[Pierce Manhammer]

for my American brothers in arms:

It is the Soldier
It is the Soldier, not the minister
Who has given us freedom of religion.

It is the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the Soldier, not the poet
Who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer
Who has given us freedom to protest.

It is the Soldier, not the lawyer
Who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the Soldier, not the politician
Who has given us the right to vote.

It is the Soldier who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
Who allows the protester to burn the flag.

-
Hooah, Oorah and whatever the squids and flyboys say…

We all game some, some gave all.

22 combat veterans take their own lives everyday in the US.

Interesting how the WWI armistice was signed at 11:00 am on 11/11.

Kinda like how D-Day was on the 6th hour of the 6th day of the 6th month of the year (5:30 am on June 6th - 666) and named Operation Overlord.

And how there's the Illuminati seeing eye on the back of the dollar bill.

Almost makes you think there's something behind this numerology and occultism stuff.

As Smedley Butler (who at the time was considered the most decorated Marine in US history) wrote, "War is a Racket".

To be fair, these soldiers - God bless their good intentions - are the main reason why the rest of the world hates the USA.

In our case, my unit, my war. To a man we were all in our late teens and early 20’s. We were there for the right reasons in our hearts, whether or not it was the right thing geopolitically or who benefitted most in the end. Or if there is a council of twelve, Illuminati, bilderbergs, MK Ultra, pizzagate, an alien base under the Denver airport et al or not.

Sheepdogs, who put their lives on the line to defend the defenseless.

A man who volunteers for service is typically there for duty, honor and country. Old fashioned and quaint ideals for most of y’all.

I gave my pound.

Thank you for your sacrifice sir

My go-to will always be "thank you for sweeping your floors."

I'd also include warriors of any allegiance that fight for the values of Western Civilization, like these Heroes:

I had a non-blood-granduncle that was at Omaha Beach, and a blood-granduncle that was KIA in WW1.

I honor all soldiers fighting for their homeland. However this post was specific to the American holiday called Veteran’s Day.

Thanks
