Four Bronze Stars, 1 with a V (Valor) device and numerous Air Medals, again 1 for Valor. Well done Sir. Don't worry about those ass clowns at the airport 50 years ago and those that currently are enrolled at Columbia. You have proved yourself, are more valued and will always have a better perspective than most people. Loved the story about your last 90 days in Country. Thank you for your service and Welcome Home.
Great video Mel! This Steve (Eagle/BOE) I miss our pew pew days. Wife and I are travelling Europe for next few months. Anyway, keep the videos coming... helps me remember our coffee days. ~ I agree this new administration will crack down on all this BS. Cheers!
Thank you for the story of your time in Vietnam and journey home. Would like to hear more, if you want, about how it was getting shot down 3x, but that is at your discretion. Vietnam wrecked the Draft, so now 1% wear the Uniform for the other 99% who have no skin in the game, so we have troops used up and no one care except the troops and the families. We have had repeats of Vietnam in both Sandbox Wars, thousands of dead GI's and zip to show for it. Agree, the pro Hamas on college campuses is upside down. Nonetheless, have a glorious Veteran's Day and as you say, Carry On!
@@inyourdefense0 I have no idea what is going on at Columbia, but during my undergrad days at Cornell (1987-1991), many of my friends and classmates were ROTC. No one had an issue with folks joining the military. It was a great way to pay for an education and do something good.
@@inyourdefense0 Figures... Sorry you had to have that happen to you... Know one really ever deserves that... I have heard of a lot of stories being my family has been in the "military" since the revolutionary war...
We're not all dead yet, and we remember. I think I ground off about 80% of the remaining enamel on my teeth watching this. I can ill afford that so I'm going to go watch a few Babylon Bee videos to alter my mood.
@@inyourdefense0 BB is a satirical site (like The Onion). Unfortunately, many of their tongue-in-cheek skits have become prophetic so it's not so funny any more.
@@inyourdefense0 You certainly don't owe me an apology. I think you may have misunderstood. I was very upset by Columbia U and their tolerance of those spoiled commie brats. Being reminded of the way returning troops were treated brought tears. I could sense your hurt and was very angry about the cause.
With all due respect (negotiable at this moment), the language has no effect on the purpose and clarity of this message. Perhaps improving emotional intelligence will allow you to hear and understand the message this Veteran is conveying. #ProudArmyDaughter

Located in that cesspool known as New York City

Applied for any dental issues that I might have caused. Who is this Bee person?

Perhaps if you clean you your language your message would be more powerful.
