As my biography states, I am a serving military officer. My oath of office and federal law require that I mince my words on certain topics and reject discussing classified or sensitive information [Captain Willard voice over] (by the way, that’s the last role I actually enjoyed watching Martin Sheen play).
However, since I serve in the Army National Guard, I am a member of the National Guard Association and follow closely their efforts to lobby the US Congress on behalf of Title 32 military persons and units. I also participate in the Military Intelligence Corps Association.
I belong to the National Rifle Association and unashamedly sustain the notion that the second amendment to the US Constitution guarantees the individual right to keep and bear arms. I also fervently hold the belief that there can and should be reasonable limits; no individual needs to have their own 155mm howitzer or automatic grenade launcher for plinkin’ on the weekends or self-defense.
As a child I joined to the Scholastic Book Club and, later, Columbia House Records and Tapes. But, sadly, adolescent laziness led to those memberships lapsing through my own neglect.
Nothing above should lead one to believe that I will not engage in spirited debate. All opinions written on this blog are my own and do not reflect the official position of the Untied States Government or any individual, agency or department thereof, unless specifically stated.
