Welcoming 2,000 Navy Vets
The site is actually producing more revenue from the advertising monthly now than it costs (whew!) so I'm looking forward to this year to see how we can move forward and begin to give back to Navy Vets. Our goal has always (and still i… Continue

Islamic Terrorists Strike Our Homeland Again at Fort Hood
I don't give a crap if the killer in question was an Army Officer nor whether or not he was American. This Islamic Terrorist screamed the takbir and commenced to killing as many unarmed Americans as he could.
That's terrorism.
It happened here.
Again.
If this country had a single Christian shoot and kill someone in the name of God, we'd see their names and a series of special reports on… Continue

Nearing 1,000 US Navy Vets

I want to be clear that I was never actually IN Vietnam. I was on Guam during the conflict and that makes me a Vietnam era Vet. Most of what I did on Guam had to do with the war. But I never want to claim that I went through what the guys who actually went there did.
Thanks,
Wayne Devoll
