Deployments can get in a rhythm that feels like groundhogs day. Surf and turf Fridays for awhile was a happy reminder that it was Friday, and we're one more week closer to home.
Lobster and steak has been a standard for decades. It's silly to try making it controversial.
@JesseLucasSaga The military is similar. Rules are accessible. Your physical fitness and resiliency is within your control.
They pay to train you. It's a winnable game.
Memorial Day isn’t about barbecues or beach days—it’s about those American heroes who gave everything for our freedom.
THIS 70-SECOND VIDEO CAPTURES WHAT THE DAY IS TRULY ABOUT. 🇺🇸
Specialist Moses Brave Heart of the South Dakota Army National Guard received a religious accommodation from the U.S. Army. The Oglala Sioux soldier can now grow his hair long and wear traditional Sioux head decorations including an eagle feather for official Army portraits. He follows the Army female grooming standards for length and style. Brave Heart began growing his hair out after the approval came through in 2023.
This step means a lot for Native soldiers who want to serve while staying connected to their culture. Brave Heart shows quiet strength by standing up for his identity in the military. His story highlights growing respect for Indigenous traditions and opens the door for others to seek similar accommodations. Many in Native communities see it as progress toward true inclusion.
This victory celebrates the beauty of honoring who you are while defending your country.

I'm giving the benefit of the doubt by not considering propagandists historian for this argument, but rather someone who is trying to find and explain historical truths.
