Thank you. I always get a little uneasy when people thank me. I served at my own free will unlike the previous generations of draftees. I think as I become more aware of what we are as a country I get less proud of having spent a career in the military. Smedley Butler was right!

Smedley Butler *was* right! Hard pill to swallow I'm sure. SO GRATEFUL you've arrived at realizations. Don't know if Generals (ret) Vallely and McInerney are on your radar? They are awake and engaged. Precisely how I can't say, because I don't know, but there are intimations. Good stuff.

Blessings, Boflys.

Thank you. Hard pill indeed. Both generals you mentioned are great men as is Gen Boykin. But we’re already retired by the time Obama came around. I don’t know Miley but know guys who served with him and said he was a great guy. Not sure how they get compromised but they ALL do. Hard to believe not one general officer resigns in protest.

It keeps my husband up at night, he’s so disappointed in our government. He wasn’t drafted either. We’re in Florida and we thank everyone who served.

Boflys,

Please do not let the Evils poison our food. Stop their sabotage if they try. We will help if you need it. Give us a call out here. Anyone who joins our enemy is our enemy and vice versa.

The honey store is great but there’s not much parking. On bridge street.
