Just a month into the feigned Presidency of Joe Biden, we have been reminded day after day the nightmare that awaits us as the totalitarian administration continues to direct their handler in ways that derail America further then we could ever imagine. Perhaps, one the most important issues for me is Biden’s loathsome attitude towards American troops and those who took an oath to die for this country. As a former Marine, I took this oath and signed that paper over a decade ago knowing and fully accepting that giving my life for America was a distinct possibility. For me, joining the military was a tremendous honor. I always cherished this honor and duty to serve my country and protects its freedom. I always admired those before me, and always honored those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. So many young men like me felt the same and took the oath to defend and protect what they loved and adored. Some of those brave men never made it home. But their courage and bravery will never be forgotten by me. One Marine that always sticks out to me is Jason Dunham. Jason was conducting a reconnaissance mission in 2004 near Karabila, Iraq. While leading his team in an engagement, his battalion commander’s vehicle was ambushed. Eventually, as the fighting intensified, Corporal Dunham ended up in hand to hand combat with an Iraqi insurgent. During the struggle, the insurgent released a grenade coming into close contacts with his fellow troops. Without hesitation, corporal Dunham immediately jumped on this grenade bearing the brunt of the blast, while shielding his Marines. Saving the lives of two other Marines, corporal Dunham died 8 days later on April 14th 2004. I learned about corporal Dunham and countless other brave hero’s while going through Boot Camp. I remember laying in my rack at night and dreamt of the day I could have a chance to make that type of sacrifice for my men, but more importantly for my love of America. My love for the values and morals America stood for and was founded on. Going to a college preparatory school during high school, most of my friends became lawyers, engineers, doctors. There was nothing wrong with that at all. I, however, wanted something greater. Something that would separate me from them. Something that would give me an honor that only few have had the courage to obtain. That was becoming a United States Marine. In end, I know I learned far more about life and myself then any degree would have done.
It breaks my heart to see America in 2021. This is not the America I took an oath to defend. I question how many young men and women would want to defend a country that has lost touch with its founding and moral principles. This is a very dejected reality with the current state of affairs of America. American flags being burned in the street, veteran monuments being vandalized. How did we get to this point? A time where merciless politicians degrade and humiliate our brave troops. A time where white male troops must be vetted to ensure they don’t think differently than the tyrannical people that are suppose to love our country as much as we do. A time where addressing radical ideas and white supremacy is more important then preparing for battle and honoring those who went before us. It’s hard to sign an oath when much of the inferior Democratic politicians don’t even respect us. They can’t even say the pledge of allegiance without labeling it with racist ties. The transgender policy will continue to hurt the military as well. Unlike those who decide to serve for honor and distinction, we now have people that will join to get their pass at free gender transition surgery. In today’s America, it’s hard to argue with someone who doesn’t want to defend and fight for the current state of our country, and I don’t blame them. The Democratic agenda continues to insult America’s traditional values and morals while labeling and ridiculing those who comply to their Marxist agenda. I wouldn’t fight for this anti-American culture that currently holds power, I know that. The education system taking out key historical figures and events in our nations history. Its attempted demoralization of this country’s people and youth will only continue to make it worse as the years progress. Young men and women will not want to serve for a country in which they are indoctrinated to think is oppressive. The youth brainwashed to think America is not actually great, but it is a racist society that values gender issues and Marxist style equality over bravery and courage. Only time will tell the effects of today’s climate and the path of our military will take in the future. I hope and pray that one day I can again say I would be honored to defend what this country stands for and be willing to lay down my life for what America represents.
