GOOD MEMORIAL DAY AMERICA TODAY BROUGHT BACK A REMEMBRANCE TO ME THAT ONLY IN OCCASIONAL DREAMS I HAD REMEMBERED. MOST OF THOSE MEMORIES WERE SO PAINFUL THAT I PRAYED THAT I WOULD NEVER DREAM AGAIN.

I WENT BACK IN MY MEMORY WHICH WAS MORE VIVID THAN I THOUGHT MY FORGETFUL MIND WOULD REMEMBER. NEARLY 5 DECADES AGO I WAS INVOLVED IN A “POLICE ACTION” (WAR) THAT WAS A PATRIOTIC PARADYGM (SP). I DO REMEMEMBER MY THINKING SO LONG AGO AND STILL THINK IT WAS A CORRECT ASSUMPTION AND THAT BEING–OLD MEN MAKES WAR–YOUNG MEN DIE TO FULFILL OLD MENS AGENDAS.

WE WERE HINDERED BY POLITICAL CONSIDERATIONS THAT KEPT US FROM WINNING A WAR THAT WAS MEANINGLESS. I OFTEN WONDERED IF IT WAS NATURE’S WAY OF POPULATION CONTROL IN THE WORLD.

SINCE VIET NAM I HAVE SEEN COUNTLESS ENCOUNTERS THAT BASICALLY WAS UNNESSARY BUT FOR POLITICAL OR FINANCIAL REASONS WITH AN UNDERLYING RELIGION ASPECT BEING ALSO BEING PREVELANT.

SINCE BIBLE DAY’S WAR’S WERE FOUGHT AND SOME LOST AND SOME WON, BUT–IT STILL WAS WAR. WAR IS THE MOST USELESS WASTE HUMANITY HAS EVER CONCEIVED.

THERE ARE NO WINNERS AND NO LOSERS IN WAR–IT IS AN INSANE ATTEMPT TO FURTHER SOME AMBITIONS AND AGENDAS THAT REALLY HAVE NO USEFUL PURPOSE. TODAY IS TO BE A DAY OF HONOR AS IT SHOULD BE FOR THE MANY WHO HAVE SERVED AND SOME WHO GAVE ALL. BUT IT SHOULD ALSO BE A DAY OF SHAME ON THE ENTIRETY OF THE WORLD TO HAVE WASTED OUR YOUNGEST AND BEST REGARDLESS OF NATIONALITY.

I HONOR MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS WHO HAVE MADE A SACRIFICE AND SOME WHO MADE THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE AND APOLOGIZE TO THEM FOR THE INEPTNESS OF THOSE WHO REQUIRED THEM TO MAKE THAT SACRIFICE. IT SEEMS WE HAVE NEVER LEARNED THE LESSON OF CONTINUATION OF THE USLESS WASTE.

YOU WOULD HAVE HAD TO BE ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN WAR TO ACTUALLY FEEL THE HURT AND SEE ALL THE WASTE THAT ENCOMPASSED OPPOSING SIDES, WHETHER OURS OR THEIRS. I PRAY TO GOD THAT HE WILL FORGIVE US -GOD BLESS AMERICA

TOTAL PEACE OF MIND WILL NEVER BE ACHIEVED BY THOSE WHO WERE ACTIVELY PARTICIPATING IN ANY WAR. THERE WILL ALWAYS BE UNANSWERED QUESTIONS IN THEIR MIND’S –WAS THIS RIGHT?–ONLY GOD KNOWS THAT

IT WILL ALWAYS BE A BURDEN ON ANY SOLDIERS SHOULDERS AND IN THEIR MIND THAT HAS KILLED MANY AS TO WHETHER THERE WERE JUSTIFICATION OR IT WAS JUST TO KEEP ALIVE THEMSELVES-THAT IS A LINGERING QUESTION I HAVE LABORED WITH FOR MANY YEARS NOW. —AND I STILL HAVE NOT FOUND THE ANSWER

WE ALL KNOW TODAY IS A DAY OF MEMORIAL BUT FEW KNOW ABOUT THE CLANDESTINE MEN BEHIND THE SCENE OPERATIVES IN SECRET ORGANIZATIONS THAT GAVE ALL THAT NO ONE EVEN KNEW ABOUT.

THERE WERE SECRET PRIVATE ORGANIZATIONS THAT MOST KNEW NOTHING ABOUT WHO BORE THE BLUNT INITALLY OF THE BATTLE. THEY WERE IN ORGANIZATIONS THAT OUR COUNTRY NEVER EVEN ACKNOWLEDGED EXISITED. THESE ARE THE FORGOTTEN FEW WHO DONE SO MUCH TO INSURE THAT OUR TROOPS HAD FOREKNOWLEDGE OF THE BATTLE SCENE AND HAD PROVIDED INFORMATION THAT SAVED MORE LIVES THAN YOU COULD EVER CONTEMPLATE.

THEY WERE IN PLACES THE USA SAID THEY WASN’T AND THEY WENT ON MISSIONS THAT WILL NEVER BE IN THE HISTORY BOOKS—I KNOW–NUFF SAID.

THESE INDIVIDUALS WHO WORKED FOR “THE COMPANY” WERE REQUIRED TO SIGN AN N.D.A. AND ALL OF THEIR PREVIOUS HISTORY , EVEN THEIR NAMES WERE ERASED FROM HISTORY AS THOUGH THEY NEVER EXISITED, THEY WERE EXPENDABLE ASSETS. (THAT IS A DIRECT QUOTE)–EXPENDABLE ASSETS–SAD BUT TRUE.

I NOW LIVE IN A COUNTRY THAT IS NOT THE COUNTRY I FOUGHT FOR. NUFF SAID.

DO NOT CRY FOR THE LIVING–SHED TEARS FOR THE DEAD

IT IS THEREPUTIC SOMETIMES TO SIT BEHIND A COMPUTER WITH A FACELESS NAMELESS BEING THAT CAN RELATE TRUTH WITHOUT BEING EXPOSED TO SCORN OR RIDICULED. I HAVE POSTED THINGS I HAD HOPED I HAD FORGOTTEN BUT SOMETIMES YOU CAN’T CONTROL WHERE YOUR HEART,, MIND AND MEMORIES GO–

A warrior once said that, when enough people desire peace on earth, the governments of this world will just HAVE to give it to them. Are we there yet?

UNFORTUNEILY (SP) THE CHANGES WE SEE IN OUR COUNTRY IS NOT THE CHANGES WE NEED AND WANT.

DO YOU REALIZE THERE ARE PRESENTLY A BACKLOG OF 880,000 APPLICATIONS LAYING ON THE DESK OF THE V.A. AWAITING RESOLUTION REGARDING REQUESTED HELP?

KEEP POUNDING THE PHONES AND WRITE LETTERS TO YOUR CONGRESSMEN AND SENATORS–DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME SENDING ANY LETTERS TO 1600 PENN. AVE—IT WILL BE AN EXERCISE IN FUTILITY

BEFORE DONATING TO ANY WARRIOR ASSISTING ORGANIZATION REQUIRE A FINANCIAL STATEMENT STATING WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THEIR DONATIONS ACTUALLY GO TO THE VETERANS–

We do have an opportunity, if thousands of like minded people say with one voice, there’s a new Sherriff in town.

SHERIFF ARPIO FROM PHOENIX IS THE ONLY ONE WITH BACKBONE ENOUGH TO STAND UP AGAINST THE FEDERAL GOVERMENT AND ENFORCE LAWS THAT ARE ALREADY ON THE BOOKS AND MAKES SURE WHAT HE DOES IS CONSTITUIONAL

ARE YOU AWARE THAT THE USA HAS THE HIGHEST NUMBER OF INCARCERATIONS OF ANY COUNTRY IN THE WORLD PERCENTAGE WISE AND THAT IT COSTS THE FEDERAL GOVERMENT 48,000 DOLLARS A YEAR TO KEEP THEM LOCKED UP”

SHERIFF ARPIO HAS DONE MORE FOR PINK UNDERWEAR THAN VICTORIAS SECRET

DO YOU KNOW WE COULD GIVE ALL THE INCARCERATED PEOPLE IN AMERICA A HARVARD OR YALE EDUCATION FOR LESS THAN WE SPEND KEEPING THEM LOCKED UP??

SOMEONE POSED A QUESTION AWHILE AGO ABOUT WHAT WE COULD DO TO HELP STRAIGHTEN OUT OUR COUNTRY.====

WELL–DO YOU SUPPOSE THEY COULD LOCK EVERYONE OF US UP IF WE ALL DIDN’T PAY OUR TAXES FOR A WHOLE YEAR WITH THE CAVEOT BEING–UNTIL THE TAXATION ISSUE BECOMES FAIR WE REFUSE TO PAY ANY TAXES?—

WHATCHA BET THAT WOULD GET ATTENTION.

GIVEN THE FACT MY HOUSE IS SURROUNDED BY BLACK S.U.V’S–MAYBE I BETTER SIGN OFF (JK)—BLESSINGS AMERICANS AND BELIEVERS AND ALL OUR WORLD WIDE FRIENDS-
