DOD Making Plans to Close Military Commissaries
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Benefit to Troops and Families Second only to Medical Care
The Obama Department of Defense is seriously considering closing all military commissaries as part of the 2015 Defense Budget.
Closing 178 stores in the United States and 70 overseas, the closing would save approximately $1.4 billion annually. Salaries for employees are included in the Defense Budget. Commissary customers pay a 5 percent surcharge on all purchases in the stores to fund construction and maintenance of facilities, equipment and supplies. Titles to the multi-million dollar facilities paid for by troops and their families are donated to the government. It is a good deal for the taxpayers.

WWII Pilot Training A Dangerous Mission

Hall Remembers his Service during an Unforgettable Time
In remembrance of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor that happened 72 years ago on December 7, I sat down with a WWII vet to get his take on this fateful event.
On the day of the attack, Frank Hall and his friend hitchhiked into town to watch The Last of the Mohicans at the theater. While they were watching the movie a typed messaged was projected on the screen that read, the Japs just bombed Pearl Harbor. Hall remembers that gasps were heard within the darkness and a bunch of people got up and rushed out. At that moment in time Hall didn’t know where Pearl Harbor was located and thought it was a town in China since they had been warring with the Japanese for quite some time. It wasn’t until he phoned his mother that he found out that the attack was on American soil. In shock, he returned home to be with his family and listen to the message from the president urging for Congress to return. Hall was 15 years old at the time.

Veterans Report Problems Despite New Facility
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Veterans without VA Healthcare must Get Obamacare or Have Assessment added to Their Income Tax.
Just a few weeks ago, the Veterans Administration cut the ribbon officially opening the new elaborate Greenville Outpatient Clinic. Politicians, developers and administrators heaped praise on each other on that occasion, however, a Town Hall Meeting held at the facility last Thursday was well attended by veterans with complaints. Their comments indicated that the elaborate clinic may be understaffed and less than responsive to some veterans’ alleged problems and concerns. Information provided regarding Obamacare did not add to the comfort level of most veterans.

VA Forcing Chaplains from Service for Quoting Scripture, Praying in the Name of Jesus
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Veterans Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki Sued by Attorneys for Baptist Group
Two Baptist chaplains have said they were forced out of a Veterans Affairs chaplain-training program after they refused orders to “stop quoting the Bible” and “stop praying in the name of Jesus.”
This is a pattern of anti-Christian behavior that has surfaced throughout the Obama administration aimed at military personal both active and retired.
Navy Chaplain Lt. Commander Dan Klender and retired Army chaplain Major Steven Firtko had enrolled in the VA’s Clinical Pastoral Education Center program in San Diego last year.
