I believe this combat vet/patriot was interviewed in the early 2000’s….his whole story about his experience in Vietnam is worth the listen. In the vid PFC McNelly recounts his Vietnam experience but he really gets down to the nitty gritty of what it means to be an American and what the flag means to him.

Go to the 51:00 mark and listen to a few minutes….

As an OEF veteran that hit home. That man is a Patriot. These librard freaks would never serve in a combat zone and would shite themselves if they experienced one tenth of what PFC McNelly experienced. They are cowards. This man is not.

It was pretty crazy when McNelly told the dude interviewing him that he didn’t remember specific times and dates during combat, it was just night and day and some of his combat memories were purposely blotted out to forget.

I can relate to much of what he talks about, especially the names we were called by the unknowing and the anti-war factions upon our return. He is 100% spot on about our flag, and what it stands for and I heartily agree. This is a big reason why I continuously do battle with my HOA in order to fly the red, white, and blue in my front yard with my Marine Corps colors! God bless and save our great nation.

My former coworker who retired in 2012 was a Vietnam era USAF veteran. Flew on B-52 missions.

He was a centrist Democrat (far-right extremist by today's standards) when he enlisted, and genuinely felt the need to serve and help the south Vietnamese.

When he came back from deployment and his tour was over, he was expecting to just peacefully go home to his family... but as soon as he landed on US soil for a layover, he was spit on and cussed by hippies and "flower children".

He never voted for a Democrat again, and still won't. All he wanted was to come home quietly and see his wife, and he was relentlessly attacked by the liberal mob he once stood with, calling him all kinds of hateful names including "baby killer"...

Fast forward 50 years, and the democrats are the ones threatening death to SCOTUS justices because the SCOTUS threatens their ability to continue murdering babies.

The irony is so thick that the best authors in world history couldn't have written it.

God bless this man .. true American hero.

It infuriates me when pompous, entitled athletes disrespect our flag by kneeling during the National anthem.

'67 - '68 my brother was in Vietnam. Thank God he made it back. He has very little to say about being there, but what few stories he tells are chilling.

Yes! It does if we care enough for those who sacrificed and gave all. We America First patriots owe it to the freedom fighters who have served in the military over the course of US history to take a stand against a government that has abandoned the principles and legal foundation this country was founded upon.

I just listened to an interview on Newsmax with Goya CEO and founder Bob Unanue and he said exactly what’s going on in the US today…..he said the US government is attacking the American people with their domestic policies. Who could argue?

Look I have infinite respect for those who put their lives on the line. But more or less forever every conflict we have been involved in was about money and politicians not "fighting for freedom"
