God has just spoken to us through the voices of twelve courageous jurors, who told us the truth. Now it’s up to us to listen!

Finally heard back from the VA on my Pact Act claim for diagnosed medical issues involving toxins and defoliants from service in Vietnam. They acknowledge service-connection but want to defer any compensation to see if the conditions get worse. Oh well. I’ve got plenty of time!

Meaningful to me because my army MOS was “Morse Code Intercept.” Did a 6-month school to learn code, then to Vietnam to track Viet Cong and NVA transmissions. Also, when in Germany, I was one of the first to follow the Russian tank division that rolled into Prague in Aug of ‘68.

I saw the January 6 attack on our capitol, that U.S. flags were rolled up & used as weapons against the Capitol Police. Since then, I haven’t displayed my American flag. Now that justice is moving against the “instigator,” I’ll be proudly displaying my flag again! #ProudBlueVets
