Thank you for sharing these stories, Col. Vindman. It must be doubly difficult for you and your brother Eugene, seeing the military in which you so proudly served being denigrated and destroyed, by trump slime, a hegseth.

Thank you for sharing these deeply moving stories of those with whom you served, and for including Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. This is the very best thing I’ve read all day. Thank you for all you’ve done to keep us all free. We continue to have a lot of work to do to keep our country free now, too. God Bless America! 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙🇺🇸

Truly, we don’t like to think of them as having died in vain! So many in the bloom of youth with their future ahead of them — a heartbreaking & incalculable loss.

Also another Memorial will soon be upon us — Jesus Christ’s memorial. I truly hope as many as possible reap the benefits of his sacrifice too - everlasting benefits. 🕊️🌿
