POW/MIA Day

Today there will be ceremonies held across the country in honor of our soldiers who are classified as POW or MIA. Many are unaware of what is represented in the items that are used in this ritual of honor, and I think that every American should have a full understanding and appreciation for the hist

I Am the Flag

Today I attended the funeral of a very dear family friend who will be greatly missed by family and friends alike. Hal was quite a character.

Not So Easy After All

When I began my mission to bring the VA’s Aid and Attendance benefit to national attention 3 years ago, I honestly thought it would be a pretty easy thing to do. I naively thought that if I simply sent out tons of emails and letters to all major media outlets they would have responded with [...]

Promises

Promises are easy to make, but often much harder to keep. Both Presidential candidates are promising to “fix” what is wrong with this country, the challenges we face, and to take on “BIG” government to correct the problems.
