Freedom is not Free
It is an honor to be able to have anything to do with the reelection of President Donald J Trump.
I am a 72-year-old Marine Sergeant veteran and am the youngest of thirteen children. I spent four years in the United States Marine Corps from 1966 to 1970, and I am very proud of my service. I loved the discipline that the Marine Corps taught me and the respect for the chain of command that is essential for the system to operate properly.

I come from a lineage of veterans: my father was in the Army and fought in World War I; my brother, Bob, was in the Army Air Corps and built and flew gliders into Normandy on D-Day; my other brother, Charles, was in the Marine Corps; and my third brother, Anthony, was a twenty-five-year Army First Sergeant and a thirty-month Prisoner of War (POW) survivor during the Korean War; and my last brother, Richard, was also in the Army.
President Trump will never let the memory of our past military men and women be forgotten. He has rebuilt our military into the greatest force in the world after past administrations destroyed it. He created another branch of service, the United States Space Force, that will help defend our country for years to come with high technology and weapons that other nations will fear.
I love watching President Trump approach Air Force One or Marine One and salute the military personnel that serve him and our country. It shows his respect and care for them. I really believe a Marine taught him how to salute because he does it properly.
President Trump is not a career politician and he has done everything and more than he promised during his 2016 election campaign. Imagine how much more the President can accomplish with another four years in the White House.
This is a very important election as our country is at a crossroad where we either protect our Constitution and live free, or turn into a socialist society. President Trump is clearly the only true choice. I believe that after President Trump serves his next four years, he will be remembered as the greatest President ever. I pray for him and his administration every day that God will give them the wisdom and courage to keep doing what is best for America and keep God in our everyday lives.
Freedom is not free. Many of our veterans have made the ultimate sacrifice defending our Constitution and our way of life over the history of out great nation.
Semper Fi to my brothers and sisters. Once a Marine, Always a Marine. God Bless America and keep it great.
