Nation = The Communist State

I read it and don't think it's the end of the world. The memo even says "Duty, Honor, Country" weren't added until 1998. At least it's not some woke mission statement. Way far greater things to gripe about than this in my opinion.

They did not "boot" him. He was allowed to graduate and receive a commission. It was after it was reported and a backlash ensued that the Army finally got rid of him.BluHorseShu said:Yep.
