… is ISME still a viable entity? Can it be a vehicle for good?

So the “Federal government” is pulling out of the #America250 branding collaboration that has been taking place with many state and commercial partners to celebrate the 250th from 1776. They will change to a #Freedom250 branding creating mixed messages and cross branding issues. Other inputs?

Yep, reading now and would love to have an interview with the author. #JustSaying

September 18, 1947, was the birthday of the U.S. Air Force. In 1995, following the lead of the U.S. Air Force Academy which first created them in 1994, the USAF unveiled its core values of “Integrity first. Service before self. Excellence in all we do.”

Team, a quick point, please. This is also the 250th birthday of the U.S. Army and they were already planning to have a major display on the National Mall as part of the National America250 campaign. The parade is a tweak of something that has been in the works since before the election.

So this is who I will be honoring in my lapel. How about you? #WeThePeople

We need to recognized that there are currently 13 states that have a “State Militia” that is not subject to “Federalization.” Remember when Presidents Kennedy and Johnson “called up” the local National Guards in Alabama and other states to push and support Civil Rights over the objections of govs?

There are 13 states that support “State Militia” that are not able to be “Federalized.” This may need to occur in all Blur states. Thoughts?

So, for those who haven’t been to Ottawa and looked at Canada’s monuments, this is the largest war memorial (besides the nearby Tomb of the Unknown which is within sight) that commemorates the heroic defense of #Canada from the “expansionist United States of America” jn the years from 1812 to 1815.

Excuse me. How is today’s announcement different than the plan already announced in December 2024 with the Biden Administration? www.canada.ca/en/public-sa... #JustAsking

Jimmy Carter is an outstanding role model to the next generations of Americans for living with purpose and calling. He was a man of #character!

The late 39th POTUS Jimmy Carter had a true grasp of what it takes to live a life of meaning and purpose. Humble Service and love!

On the 5th birthday of the nation’s newest military service, know that their core values are: Character, Commitment, Connection, and Courage. “Semper Supra” to the United States Space Force. May the the U.S. military hold on to its reputation for service to the Constitution and their core values.

Young Americans place wreaths on veterans’ graves at Arlington National Cemetery this weekend.

President George Washington, said, “The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war, no matter how justified, shall be directly proportional to how they perceive the Veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by their nation.” Thank you to everyone at ANC.

The Civil Air Patrol, USAF Auxiliary has “Volunteer Service” as a core value. In a government run by the ultra rich, who benefits from this path? Is this just one more attack on a paid middle class entrepreneur effort by replacing them with volunteers?

#Corevalues keep the branches of the U.S. military grounded in their mission to support and defend the Constitution of the U.S. Today is the 83rd birthday of Civil Air Patrol, U.S. Air Force’s civilian (non-belligerent) auxiliary. Its values are Integrity, volunteer service, Excellence, + Respect.

The #NorthStar has been a symbol for guidance on the #RightPath for many millennia. How can we be sure we are following the path of truth, fairness, and justice?

#Gratitude is the theme of the “season.” What are you grateful for today, and every day?

Sharing a bit of granola with a new friend.

#Respect is a core value for excellence in life. Thank you to all who share it freely with others!
