He was a warrior. Check out what he did in VN.

He was a CPT. and his company consisted of locals. Their AOA was in Indian country. Big BALLS.

Funny how me as a 44 year old vividly remembers the 24/7 media coverage of us liberating Kuwait with non-stop footage of precision missiles, dropped bombs, etc hitting their targets on live tv with Stormin Norman, Wolf Blitzer, Colin Powell, etc giving updates by the hour when we are now told the same thing is occurring 31 years later in Ukraine completely absent of what we saw in 1991.


31 fricking years ago. 1991.

Why is the corrupt media lying to us? 31 fricking years ago we saw war real-time. Now we rely on feelings.

That dude was a badass.. Anyone remember when they had desert storm cards? They were like baseball cards, but of people associated with Desert Storm.. I had one of Norman Schwarzkopf.

If I looked hard enough at my mom's house I still might have it.

I was watching one of Schwarzkopf’s pressers with my Dad when the Gulf War started. My dad said I went to school with that general at West Point. I bet he's a great General. I asked why is that? Dad said Schwarzkopf was an upper classman when I was a plebe. I hated that SOB

The media over all those years tiptoed little bit further and little bit further and little bit further looking for that line over which they absolutely could not step. Come to find out there is no line and they can literally do and say whatever they want with nearly zero repercussions. But now the cat’s outta the bag and it’s a damn free for all limited only by their imaginations.
