Ollie North

I consider this Marine to be a good friend, and one helluva Marine, although I have not communicated with him for years. He and I attended Amphibious Warfare School as captains in 1973, the last of the six-month courses due to the Vietnam War. In fact, Ollie won the coveted “Spring Butt Award” by a unanimous vote of the entire class. LOL. We were also stationed together in Okinawa in the late 70s. I know he may not be a hero to some, but he is to me. I sincerely believe he took a bullet for his bosses over that Iran-Contra BS. In fact, the Marine who took the bullet with him was also in that class; the only one of the 181 Marine captains in the class who was not a Vietnam veteran. He was on a Rhodes Scholar program. Maybe someone on here will remember his name.

I’m glad to hear that Ollie’s doing well at 81. I did not realize he was that many years behind me. 

I will give him credit; he does know how to pick them. LOL

Veteran Forcibly Dragged from Air Force Ceremony for Mentioning God

And, he was invited and asked to give the speech by the man retiring. This is an example of how far we have come by allowing the vocal minorities to rule. A retiring Airman can not ask a friend and fellow retired Airman of 33 years to give a particular speech that he liked at HIS ceremony. Talk about a LtCol commander who has sucked on the LtColKool Aid hose for so long that he felt justified to made this happen. Don’t you believe for a moment that those Airman got up and forcibly escorted the speaker out of the room on their own. It was pre-planned and those Airman were ordered to do that. I hope the attorneys for the seized Airman go after that LtCol and the US Air Force itself.

I can tell you this much, had I been the person retiring, I would have followed my friend, whom I invited, out the door and told the USAF to mail me my stuff. What an embarrassment to the USAF. What’s their motto, “Aim High,” or maybe that was the last one; I think it’s now “Reach for the Stars,” . . . . . .  okay, but do not mention God!

Oh my God!

Happy Father’s Day Dad’s

Despite the sad state of our once great nation, it’s Father’s Day. To all Fathers out there, have a great day. If you are reading posts from my blog then I can  assume you were and are a great father. I know I could have been a better father to my children had it not been for the Corps demanding so much of my time. However I sincerely hope and pray that my children understand that I love them dearly and while I may not have physically been there for some of their firsts, I was their mentally and spiritually. With that how about some smiles for Father’s Day. Semper Fi; JB

Am I a lone wolf out here crying in the woods? Does anyone else see anything in this tragedy? Perhaps I am just being an alarmist over this influx of Islam into Western society. Well, at my age I won’t be affected much by it, but for all of you who are in your 50’s or less, have fun! One thing’s for sure, it will prove to be interesting. That is, unless you do something about it now, but even then, it may be too late. Keep your head about you!
