@SecWar Meanwhile our servicemen are trying to commit suicide because conditions are so bad on the USS Abraham Lincoln. If you want all this camera time, go back to Faux Entertainment. You are dangerously incompetent.

@SecWar Lost a great cousin with the 7thSF in Panama ‘95. Is a shame to not have him around. RIP KJB, you’re greatly missed!

Napoleon once said, "All men are enamored of decorations. . . they positively hunger for them." So, by developing the Napoleonic system—the medal business—the government learned it could get soldiers for less money, because the boys like to be decorated. Until the Civil War there were no medals. Then the Congressional Medal of Honor was handed out. It made enlistments easier. After the Civil War no new medals were issued until the Spanish-American War. In the World War, we used propaganda to make the boys accept conscription. They were made to feel ashamed if they didn't join the army. So vicious was this war propaganda that even God was brought into it. With few exceptions our clergymen joined in the clamor to kill, kill, kill. To kill the Germans. God is on our side.. .it is His will that the Germans be killed. And in Germany, the good pastors called upon the Germans to kill the allies. . . to please the same God. That was a part of the general propaganda, built up to make people war conscious and murder conscious. Beautiful ideals were painted for our boys who were sent out to die. This was the "war to end wars." This was the "war to make the world safe for democracy." No one told them that dollars and cents were the real reason. No one mentioned to them, as they marched away, that their going and their dying would mean huge war profits. No one told these American soldiers that they might be shot down by bullets made by their own brothers here. No one told them that the ships on which they were going to cross might be torpedoed by submarines built with United States patents. They were just told it was to be a "glorious adventure." ' Thus, having stuffed patriotism down their throats, it was decided to make them help pay for the war, too. So, we gave them the large salary of $30 a month! All they had to do for this munificent sum was to leave their dear ones behind, give up their jobs, lie in swampy trenches, eat canned willy (when they could get it) and kill and kill and kill. . . and be killed. -Maj General Smedley Butler, War is a Racket

@RealestMercury @SecWar Lloyd Austin would have had a mosquito head net even IF he had the balls, courage, and integrity to go down there and spend time with the grunts.

@SecWar This guy is such a tool.
