fiftynine
I am a Vietnam vet..out of Danang in 67,68,and am proud of my service and those i served with..Democrat.Left of center,and father of two teenage boys.
I hate war but understand the need for a strong military.I especially dislike non serving war mongers that believe war is some kind of board game.I think Iraq was wrong and that bush was bad for this country. and i make no apologies for that.
I Love music,especially metal and hard rock..am currently in a band that plays everything from metal to classic rock.
Love nature and the outdoors..don't miss a thing when i'm in the woods...i have been known to stay out for days.
I believe that there are forces at work from within that are trying to undermine what our country has stood for for generations.I don't like cowards and people that will not protect our way of life or take our rights and freedoms and our sovereignty seriously..No more illegals.!!
Common sense is so rare any more that when used people think it's a super power !!!
