- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Only 19 percent of 114th Congress have ever served in Uniform
The 114th Congress that will be sworn in just a few days from now will have the smallest number of military veterans of any Congress since before World War II.
Military experience in the Congress peaked at almost 80 percent in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Since that time, the percentage of Congressmen with military experience has dropped drastically and leveled off at about 20 percent since 2013.
The number of military veterans serving in the senate during the 114th Congress will increase from 19 to 20 and the number of military veterans serving in the House will decrease from 87 to 81.

About 3 pm. he shot and killed two New York policemen while they were sitting in their marked police car in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn. The killer was later identified as Ismaaiyl Brinsley. He killed himself a few minutes later on a crowded Brooklyn subway platform.
