YES!!! So sick of hearing of Socialists being elected and politicians putting down the USA. Offer them a free ticket to any other country as long as they don't come back and none of them will take you up on it.
My Dad was a WWII veteran, tank destroyers under Patton. He survived Battle of the Hedgerows, Battle of Normandy and Battle of the Bulge. Few others did, most of the unit in the end were replacements. They survived one of the coldest winters in history without any waterproof boots, gloves or clothing living in frozen / wet foxholes, pulling the tank over it at night for protection, with constant shortages of food and clothing.
In one day they lost 9 of 13 tanks when they encountered a German Tiger Tank. They still had the 75 mm guns, and my Dad said the shells bounced off the Tiger like ping pong balls. But every day, they got back into their tanks and completed their assignments. Then they discovered the concentration camps!
Too many young folks today do not appreciate the sacrifices made by millions of men to give them their freedom. Some came home, some did not, but none were the same. They did it, as my Dad said, so you would not have to wake up in the morning saying: "Heil Hitler"!
We absolutely need more patriotism in this country. Civilization is not progressing (as it should be), it is declining!
