[August 1, 2023] This will sound weird and maybe unbelievable to those who have never been in the military, but I love concertina wire.

[July 25, 2023] I was in Seoul, Wonju, Daegu, and Busan, South Korea (home of 8th U.S. Army and United States Forces Korea) two winters ago.

[July 15, 2023] I entered the U.S. Army in the summer of 1974 as a Private. I was about to learn the meaning of life’s most important principle, and it was not what I thought it was.

[July 14, 2023] I was sitting in church with my family in late February 1962, only a few weeks shy of my 10th birthday, with my favorite yo-yo in my front pocket. My friends and I ran outside to do the “John Glenn” trick when the sermon concluded. This yo-yo trick would be three loops around and… Read More »
[July 13, 2023] This year has been the kiss of death for woke companies pushing their transgender ideology and then suffering massive blowbacks.
