As promised, I intend to deliver more military stories. I was watching TV tonight when I learned about Got Your 6. This organization focuses on helping our military personal return to civilian life. It also educates civilians on enlisted and veteran men and women. Those of us at home will better understand military duty, service, [...]
Lately, I do not have any desire to write. Why? Probably the events in my life that bring me down and want to make me crawl in a hole. Don’t worry. I see the hole but have no intention of jumping in anytime soon. I know that I have steered away from the military focus [...]
I recently asked Sgt. Honda what he wears when driving the general. He told me that it depends on what event the general is attending. Apparently, if they are going to a military function then Sgt. Honda wears his Service “A” or Alpha uniform. I have only seen him in this uniform once. It was [...]
The war on terrorism has been long and tedious. It is not over by a long shot. But for quite a few families, the chance to spend the holidays together is now a reality. Homecoming is a special event. I’ve lived through the waiting. Still waiting for another. I found this story especially uplifting in [...]
Tomorrow we will sit down and give thanks for all that we have. Most of us will spend time with loved ones and friends. Some may not be as lucky.

Walking With The Wounded raises money for groups that help retrain military men and women for civilian life. Walking With The Wounded recently made news when two expedition leaders Ed Parker and Simon [...]
It is no surprise that Dakota Meyer says he is not a hero. True heroes always play down what they did in combat. If they did not I think we would be in trouble. I am glad to see that more living service members are receiving the highest award available. They should not all have to [...]
It is hard to believe that one month from now will be the 10th anniversary of 911. Hard to believe it took us 10 years to catch and kill Osama bin Laden. I am glad we did and I am glad we gotten rid of so many other evil people that want to kill us [...]
This one made me cry. Especially thinking that someday I might have a grandchild doing something like this.
I was recently contacted by a representative from Open Sky, a new shopping site. The site is filled with unique items such as toiletries, food and fun gifts. The reason I am writing this is Open Sky along with some very special curators have teamed up to have a very special sale on Thursday, May [...]
