Awesome writing I agreed with what you said. The Army deserves kudos and praise. People see it and think it’s the governments army, but that’s not true. Those are our soldiers, that’s OUR army. We should trade better care of them. Not allow our employees to decide where they go. That should be a choice all Americans should have a say in. We need to be better governing body’s. An employee sucks cause the boss allows it. Need to go back to war bonds!

Our troops deserve the benefits they were promised but instead their benefits are being cut or completely denied. Is that how we should honor them?

Not true. Benefits for troops and veterans are being cut.

I’m the Secretary of VA, and I’m telling you right now, that’s not happening… the reality is, Veterans benefits aren’t getting cut,” Collins said. “In fact, we are actually giving and improving services.”

He went on to emphasize that the Veterans Benefits Administration is clearing cases faster than ever and that VA remains mission-focused by doing what it is supposed to do.

I’ve got a dear friend in his 70’s (Santa Barbara California area) dependent on his VA Benefits to pay rent. My friend is a Vietnam Veteran. They were cut off several months ago, along with another elderly neighbor of his….

Meanwhile they can’t make rent!

That’s the opposite of a raise!

VA are reviewing contracts to ensure operations remain efficient and that resources are directed toward services for Veterans.

Being sans cable or streaming TV, I was disheartened to find that I had to watch the parade streaming on utube on my phone. Honoring our US Army for 250 years of sacrifice should have been shown on every channel! Shame on MSM for catering to the "no kings" crowd.

Trump, who I voted for, is a puppet of the zionists/ deep state. The United States Army, has unfortunately, been imperialist tools of globalists. They don't defend the freedom of Americans, they do use Force to foment coup d'etat around the world.

George Washington is rolling over in his grave at this pretentious nonsense.

Don't confuse what I said with a lack of respect for the Army. They've been conditioned to believe their actions are Justified to protect the United States.

One need look no further than General Smedley Butler's book War is a Racket to see what an illusion that is.

I love our country as founded. And who cannot love our precious troops. But I’m very worried about the dirty deeds our CIA and some in government are doing. Ironically they’re not the ones who have to go fight the wars they create. Our precious young men and women in the military pay a heavy price.

You are 100 percent correct! This event was a scripted perfectly timed way to instill patriotism into the whole country and make them want to back Trumps war! Every bit of this was emotional manipulation of the masses in order to send more boys off to die! We have been set up again by their political theater and I hope the whole country will wake up and realise it and say no to war!!!!!!! Beware the machinations of the NWO agenda and their haglien dialect tactics! They want you dead!

Trumps been stopping war even when he wasn’t President. He still had talks with many foreign dignitaries. Even his secret service have mentioned he kept us out of a war even while Biden was President. Biden had no idea what he was doing. He was a shell of a human, being led around by evil democrats. But he’s also not going to be a “push-over” and let other countries walk all over us!!! I love that!!

Our military would have loved to have $45M spent to ensure NO Veteran is ever homeless again, to ensure they never lose benefits, to ensure that veterans have mental healthcare. That would have been money well spent.

Celebrating peace through strength. How many times has Trump said he wants to stop the killing? He even said it during a cnn town hall. New technologies to demonstrate that we are not to be messed with. Bring our troops home! This is the message Trump has repeatedly shared. Negotiations skills have been on full for 5 months. Wake up!
