Fighting Soldiers From The Sky

After the last election I felt like I had lost a close family member.
It has become harder and harder to post here as I watch my country go down the toilet.
Are we already past the point of no return?
The next few weeks will tell.

But I want to relate this to you here...
Some time back I posted a video of a Marine that indicated our troops WOULD NOT follow any orders to attack citizens. Some commented that Marine's video did not indicate what would really happen if the order were given to take out groups applying their 1st Amendment rights.

I disagreed at the time, and I want to relate something that will comfort those of you who are committed to the Constitution now...

We have a neighbor who is a Green Beret... a member of our elite Special Forces.
I have had long conversations with this man over adult beverages.
He related that in his Group, the name of the Commander-in-chief is not permitted to be spoken aloud.
Anyone uttering the name suffers humililiation from the rest of the Group.
An order to ignore the Constitution by "He who shall remain unnamed and unspoken" will be ignored.

When hearing this, (over adult beverages), I cried.
The country is NOT LOST.
But we MUST dig our heels in NOW.

Get your head out of where it is dark, warm, and smelly.

If you already have, help others to do the same.

Think it will depend if the service member is a warrior or a fobbit (not to include fobbits with a warrior mentality). My active duty son will not comment. Knowing his values, I wouldn't want to be down range fro him after issuing such an order.

Your comment leaves the question WSF:
Who is at risk downrange?
The "progressive" Obamabot, or a productive supporter of the Constitution?

Through the many vet's runions here, I've become close friends with many Berets, active and veteran alike. They all do the same thing and share the same thoughts of the one you talked with, GB.

You'd be amazed at the size of the "rumble in jungle" that is going on within the veteran and active duty community. It's the only thing that keeps my faith alive!

This is hopeful.

He is doing what I am doing with my troops in Patrol. I have handed out numerous Oathkeeper pamphlets and speak about Oathkeepers and our US Constitution and Bill of Rights, and our need to uphold its elements to ensure our freedom.
