So what yall think. I am not sure talking about Patriotism and a double amputee pilot was probably a place I would have gone

I don't care about the symbolic gestures of "patriotism", but I'm certain someone who supports tearing down statues of George Washington, and referring to people like Lincoln and Washington as "dead traitors", demonstrates very serious ill will toward the very country they served, and it deserves all criticism it gets. It begets the necessary questions of why she served, why she sits in the Senate, why she's even considering a VP nomination, and why she's in the US at all. Her identity doesn't place her above criticism, not even the founders themselves possess that. I wouldn't play into the hands of identity politics. Someone who respects the country they serve would protect these institutions, she wants to take a stick of dynamite to them. You also have Generals who, behind closed doors, plot against the President.. the President, while benefiting from their service to immediately transition to defense contracting. That's not what service is supposed to be used for. One by one, undermining institutions like this is precisely how this revolution is playing out.

Not every officer.

 

Everything I needed to learn about Steuben came from Snoopy.

It was an ROTC thiing probably.  I seem to remember his blue book transformed a unruly buch of reprobates into a disciplined fighting machine.
