I served active in the US Navy from 6/3/62 to 6/10/65. Back then it was called a “kiddie kruise”. I was released the day before I was 21 years old. I did two tours of Tonkin Gulf Patrol in 64.
It is with great honor that I take this testimonial like I did for active service without any reservations. It is my pleasure to belong to such a dignified organization.

My father really explained most of everything that was going on in the US and the world. Not only who was really leading it but what was happening, and what was going to happen. After a few days of being stuck in my apartment…
I am a Veteran of Operation Joint Forge(Bosnia) and of Operation Iraqi Freedom. I will not stand for anything that oppresses our people or our way of life.

I swore to defend this country and I’ve sworn to uphold the Constitution and laws of Ohio. I WILL NOT break my oath and I WILL NOT allow this nation and its people to fall into the hands of others to become slaves. America needs to get back to the basics that once made it the jewel of the planet.
