Our family is full of military veterans.

Our nephew is active duty Army Intelligence -- the combat ready kind.

Our eldest son served almost 10 years in the USN, Submarine Service, as a Nuclear Power Engineer.

My husband served in the Army in Germany before the fall of the Berlin Wall.

My eldest brother is an 81 year old Army vet who served in Vietnam.

I AM ANGRY BEYOND MEASURE.

I am terrified for all those who served.

We, the people, fight peacefully, LOUDLY, and continuously.

THE TIME IS NOW.

WE SHALL PREVAIL.

THERE IS NO OTHER OPTION.

Keep your courage.

Do what you can.

Thank you Pam for your family’s service! I am also terrified for the soldiers today as this event has placed them in a very difficult position. I’m also concerned that this tyrant will reinstate the draft to increase the military numbers.

We need to contact Congress to impeach DT, Vance, Hegseth, Rubio, Johnson and anyone else that was involved in this inept and poorly constructed plan to bomb Iran. They have NO plan for the country’s economic future and since this regime has destroyed all of our allies and NATO, America is on our own. 🇺🇸

Your family has a long legacy of Bravery and Heroism and Courage and Sacrifice. Thank you. May they be protected during war and after, for the rest of their lives. Big respect. None of us can truly understand the life of those in Service, along with their families holding vigil at home. ❤️

Blessings.

Although I was a young child during the 3 years my eldest brother served in Vietnam, I missed him a lot. I wrote to him regularly.

I met my husband (together since 1978) right after his Army service.

And our eldest son was so excited about learning to run a Nuclear Reactor, & worked so hard to be among the less than 50% who passed the rigorous 2 year Power School program, that I was his cheerleader.

I also felt secure with him serving on a Los Angeles Class submarine.

Their goal is to go undetected when they are on a mission.

And our son truly did see the world.

My Daddy served in WW2.

My husband's great grandpa was a runner for Robert E. Lee.

Truly, Pam, for those of us who have never Served, we have no clue the depths of Sacrifice you all make as a family unit. My husband was a huge historian, especially of War History, he taught me so much about History. He would be rolling in his grave of the unfolding of history before us. Truly. Huge respect from me to you, and yours.
