World champ Jack Johnson battles Frank Moran in #Paris in 1914. Some thought Jack washed-up & bet on "The #Pittsburgh Dentist" getting the KO with "The Old Mary Ann" (his right hand), but "The Galveston Giant" won the 20 round decision with ease. #Heavyweight#History#Boxing
@mdhud24@DineshDSouza@isavega2017 Provided us thousands and thousands of military personnel from WWII and on. Helped shape America as it is today. Helped advance military strength in the Caribbean.
But I guess you only care about the military when it’s convenient.
@danalind1953@DineshDSouza There are currently some 330,000 veterans and some 35,000 Puerto Ricans in active duty service. The Puerto Rico Army/Air National Guard and the Reserve components represent another 10,000 Puerto Ricans in uniform. Way to disrespect out vets
@DineshDSouza At least, 375,000 Puerto Ricans are veterans or are still wearing the uniform. That is without counting the several thousand serving in the national guard units of the 50 federated states of the Union. Puerto Ricans are the only Latino group over-represented in the military.
