How will being used like this affect the epidemic of veteran suicides I wonder?

How can we even sleep at night? oh right, we can't.

I just feel like apologizing to every single person in uniform.

Sometimes I think about what my Granddad and my Dad would have to say about this catastrophe of an administration

Sending my aloha to all our folks in uniform and a prayer we can recover. Taking inspiration from the Ukrainians, who really will never give up.
