How Does This Soldier's Message Make You Feel?

Has anyone besides me noticed that this post is from 7 years ago???? Eg: obama's tenure....

That being said, I don't see any good changes happening to our military. Even The Epoch Times just posted an article talking about how the biden administration is persecuting service members who refuse the vaccine because of religious reasons, and are being denied religious exemptions, and their lives are being made a living hell, and how at a time when we NEED our military to be as strong as humanly possible, the biden administration is steadily, and consistently, WEAKENING our military through their policies. We have service members sleeping in their cars because they've been kicked out of military housing, and the barracks. We have deployed service members not being allowed to come home because they refuse the vaccine, (one service member in particular, has a 10 month old son who he's never seen or met, because they won't let him come home from Korea because he refuses the vaccine on religious grounds, (it didn't say how long he's been over seas)). Military chaplains commented in the article that they've never seen such abuse of U.S. military members. Morale is at an all time low. Veterans are no longer recommending a military life to kids interested in joining. And service members with 18 - 25 years of service, (including a general), are being forced out with total forfeiture of benefits unless they take the shot. As the article says, people with that much time in service are not easy to replace. That they are [almost] irreplaceable. Service members being PCS'd and their personal belongings being sent to the wrong location, and said service members are being forced to pay out of their own pocket to have their personal belongings shipped to the correct location...because they refused the vaccine on religious grounds. And I've now seen at least a couple of dozen articles in the news talking about how, (post injection), studies are showing the damaging medical side effects of the vaccine. But the mainstream news media flat refuses to mention one, single, syllable, about this. Actually, quite the opposite. All the mainstream news media wants to talk about is how states like California are working on legislation that actually makes it ILLEGAL to [publicly] make negative comments about the vaccine, and the negative side affects it is causing....let alone, publish proof of the negatives. It's being classified as "false information". They're not even willing to listen to, or read, anything the doctors and researchers have to say.

But.....political correctness, and woke ideology are the modus operandi dictated in our government and military these days by the current administration.....regardless of the damage it's doing to our military, and government....not to mention, our country, and society.

And The Epoch Times DID give the Office of the Secretary of Defense a chance to tell their side of the story in an interview, but the Office of the SoD didn't even acknowledge the phone calls or emails making the offer. So The Epoch Times published the only side of the story they could get.

And yes. I have the story saved if anyone wants me to share it to prove what I'm saying.

And the reason I'm talking about this, is because the original post of this particular thread reminded me of this article I just saw this weekend, and the news is very upsetting, and concerning for me. Service members not being allowed to come home?!?!?!? Active duty service members being forced to sleep in their POV's?!?!?!?!? And these are just 2 examples?!?!?!?!? It might be just me, but this is upsetting.

I'm curious if orders came down for his unit to mob to Poland, Latvia, wherever, would this Soldier attempt to get out of it? We are supposed to be apolitical while in uniform.

hmmmm......I guess my thoughts are who cares.

It's the soldier's place to follow lawful orders......even if you don't agree with them.

If you are unable to do that.....you don't need to remain a soldier.

If this joker means what he or she says this person would show their face.

Wait till you are a civilian and then you can truly enjoy your 1A freedoms. When in uniform STFU, ruck up, and move out.

If you don't want to do your job except for when you approve, get out and and join a think tank.

In 1933, a major debating society at the University of Oxford, passed a motion "That this House will under no circumstances fight for its King and Country". In 1939, Britain went to war against Nazi Germany. Most of the members of the Society did their duty for their King and Country.
Sometimes statements made in haste or in an emotional situation are abandoned when the person cools down or the situation changes.
That said, for a serving soldier to say that he won't obey orders with which he politically disagrees is unacceptable. Separating him from the service would be a reasonable step; I would explain these points to him and offer him a chance to retract his perhaps hasty and ill-considered comment -- or take off his uniform.

So, he is Airborne. I have been out a long time. Do we have E-4's in Airborne after they qualify?

A soldier goes where he’s told to go, and fights whom he’s told to fight. Otherwise, get out and run Vice President.

They must be ashamed because they’re covering their face
