I am the 87 year old widow of a 23 year career Navy sailor. He did two back to back 9 month deployments to VietNam. For that, Parkinson’s Disease caused by Agent Orange ultimately took his life. I also saw all of those things you listed and I proudly stand with you 💯%!

Thank you, truly. He so loved his country. I’m grateful he didn’t have to see what is becoming of it.

I’ve often thought of that!!! 😢 All the courageous, unselfish, brave people who sacrificed for humanity’s better future… It gives me strength & courage thinking of THEM❣️ We have far to go… Each person’s life matters beyond our ability to comprehend it all. 🫶🏼
