To my brothers-and-sisters-in-arms currently serving in Afghanistan

Let me be crystal clear, Bunker Bitch sold you, sold your lives, sold your honor, sold your service to his handler and master, Vladimir Putin. This coward, who has never worn the uniform much less volunteered to write that ultimate check, has used you as props only to cast you aside as you pull duty in one of the most miserable places in the world.

He sold you because he is compromised, he sold you because he is weak and fearful, he sold you, he sold you, he sold you.

We are at a crossroads in the country we serve and love.

Rise like the patriots you are.

Sincerely,

Aviation Pro (U.S. Army, 12A)

Meaning it's been nearly 10 years since his death.

While Trump had nothing to do with his death, Trump's nonfeasance, ignorance, stupidity, apathy, avarice, et al has mocked this boy's death. To know another country has put a bounty on the lives of American military in Afghanistan and to say/do nothing is beyond the pale and unforgivable. American lives are NOT disposable.

I can only imagine the extra grief lauded upon my friend as she faces her son's sad anniversary.

And a Democrat from the day I registered to vote.

People on this board are mostly over 60, as has been shown by multiple polls here. I sure hope there are Dems in the military, but I doubt many of them are reading this forum. That was my point.

Not sure what you're trying to say, but have at it.
