My nephew, the one that died from his wounds from a sniper in Iraq, was an Army Ranger Captain. He was an extraordinary guy, by any measure. A great combination of physical ability and endurance, plus damn smart, and a very sound moral disposition. Really the type of guy you'd want or even expect, to existentially fight for our freedom and liberty. I wonder what he'd think about these tough guy Antifa types. Actually, I'm sure he would support wholeheartedly the non-violent protesters.
Hey Aqua @Aqua-Letifer, in the above is it "support wholeheartedly" or "wholeheartedly support?" I always get confused on something like that.

Writer's preference and don't let anyone tell you differently.

I visit a friend in Indianapolis one time, and also visit the Medal of Honor Memorial there.
If you are in Indianapolis, a nice place to visit and reflect.

For the first time in Army history, a female service member completed the grueling Best Ranger Competition.
First Lt. Gabrielle White, a 25-year-old West Point graduate, became the first female ranger ever to compete in the annual three-day, 30-event marathon that unfolded April 11 to 13 at Fort Benning in Georgia.
The events included helicopter missions, land navigation, weapon qualification and various physical tests.
White was the only woman on any of the 52 two-person teams that competed, with her team making it to the final events — even as other teams dropped out — and placing 14th. Overall, the competition included 103 men, and just one woman.
