For all the US Veterans on #nostr who served or are serving, I want to follow you.

I want to hear your story on how you felt when you joined. Then fast forward to today.

Was it ever for God & Country defending our freedom, money, travel. I want to hear it.

Joined from the USG video game psyop to defend freedom and democracy.

Recommend young people away from the military so they're not cannon fodder or agents of an evil State.

Same, pushing ppl away and informing them on “who” sends us overseas to fight a war that was never ours

I enlisted in the infantry because I had ruined my life and wasted every opportunity I had to make something of myself.

I didn’t want to enlist, I hated the idea of the military, but I knew it was what I needed to do if I wanted to grow up and develop into a man.

The opportunity to go to West Point fell into my lap, and I took it. I grew into a man, developed into a leader. Earned an aviation slot, went to flight school and flew Apaches.

Two deployments, one as a grunt the other as a platoon leader. Commanded for over 2 years. Got out for my family.

I drank a lot of kool-aid along the way. But there is some truth in the American ideals. I came to terms with my mortality and what it meant to sacrifice one’s life for another, for their country.

To then learn that was all to prop up an objectively evil monetary system that formally enslaves every dollar holder… I have a new mission.

They trained me to have moral courage, to lead. So I will. I will not let this mess be my children’s inheritance. The buck has to stop. Thank God we have the tools to free ourselves from such insidious oppression. #bitcoin We can win this fight.

We all appreciate your service. The great awakening is happening.

I bet we’ve crossed paths a few times both being Army Aviators. I completed flight school in May 2005 flying Chinooks.

Went in thinking globalists lied about 9/11.

Went out thinking Satan lied about everything.

Military Industrial Complex and Central Banking Cartel

... Ephesians 6:12

That explains the Society of Christ perfectly, actually.

Add to that the Roman Catholic Church.

Always wanted to serve a higher purpose and leave the rural area I lived in. Early 90’s so there was limited mission and a lot of people working harder to get out of work then do the work. This jaded me and I left after five years wondering why any employer would hire a veteran. Vowed never to work government again because work ethic gets you more responsibilities without compensation while others making more or the same ride your efforts.

Entered civilian workforce and found it was the same but lacking discipline.

Went back to government as California Highway Patrol officer. The pension provided was something I didn’t think was possible and I was able to serve people again.

At academy during 9/11. The toughest decision in my life was the decision to stay and not go back into military. Looking back, it was the right decision but at the time I felt much guilt.

Now I pray my kids don’t feel the need to step into the breach for violence on behalf of nameless faceless elites.

I will give Bitcoin to entice another decision. 😎

Great story. Perception is clarity in these times. Thank you for your service

My father had served in the navy for 10 years. I happened to be from a family of veterans (usually my father's side, but a couple from my mother's side were in the military).

I found out they all served the Jesuit Order, though.
