He was in Stalag Luft III (as an officer), That is the Stalag from where "The Great Escape" was attempted. Also in his journal were the following: a key to a map of the compound and the map of the compound. My wife and I only have the scans. The original is at a national museum on the east coast.

Apparently blank journals were handed out to the POW's by (I forget which) humanitarian group. The guys would pass the time by writing and tracing drawings by some of the more talented artists. Anyway, here's the continuation of page 1. It's the only description I could find related to his - My Day

Not illegal yet. Trump has 90 days to order them. Congress could have stopped it early but they bounced on the War Powers vote, so he has 90 days until Congress has to affirmatively vote to keep it going.

My 6'7" "bone spurs" son sure as shit isn't getting drafted because I'd have to become a sniper to eugenics his entire line of command families from grandma to grandbaby. That's just even if he were a desk jockey. No oil wars. No #TrumpEpsteinFiles distraction war.

I lost my everlovin’ 🤯 when this happened. My family has not been military since the Civil War (Union) - husband’s great uncles both killed in France in 1918. But we had just been to Arlington, and we all discussed the sacredness of the place. And he wrecked it. Because that’s what he does. (1/2)

I see their smiling faces and think of my own children! I read about their children and think of my own grandchildren. I have no tears. Just the dull grief that I know weighs so heavily in relationships they’ve left behind! Aborted in the abruptness of loss! May eternal rest & peace be theirs.

Have such sad feelings about all the airmen lost in Trumps war of...... Their children will suffer, their families will suffer and America will suffer without their expertise and personalized sacrifice. Daughter of a vet who also feels sadness for their families.

Imagine how sad the invaded people must feel about the innocent (not volounteer signups) being slaughter by the likes of those solidiers. Could you imagine this rethoric being used for the russian invasion? Or WW2 germans? It's good when nazis die.

No, you're missing the poing. America IS the russia in this situation, and you're worrying about the invading soldiers instead of the innocent people being slaughtered

The worst time for any army is when it has to fear it’s commander in chief more than the enemy. That is the time the US army has gotten itself into because it’s sentries missed the Trojan horse that rode in through the front gate and it missed the guts to fix this epic defeat.

Too few serve in the military in this country and too few are affected by war directly. Which makes it easier to start wars, and that shouldn't be the case.

Everyone knows service members could be killed. Every Service member knows they don’t have to obey an illegal order. How did you protect women in the military while you were in Congress, given the Generals sure didn’t. 1. Killed By Co-workers. 2. Not a suicide.

We can console ourselves with the inspiration of our great leader, the Orange ShitWalrus, who said, “People die in War, ok?”. Or something like that.

This. They should not have been there in the first place. Trump and Netanyahu put their lives in danger - not for the safety and security of the American people - but for imperialism and profit.

Sorry for the loss. These service men and women are victims of an illegal war launched by a despot dictator who happens to be a convicted felon and linked to a pedophile ring, which needs to be investigated. RIP

I understand that parachutes were deemed unnecessary and were removed as a cost-saving measure a couple decades ago. A fucking cost-saving measure. A fucking cost-saving measure.

According to Kinzinger's earlier post, they were removed in 2008 to save weight to carry more fuel. He never replied if they had stayed removed, and/or were not in place for this flight.

I keep thinking about my father. He didn't have a choice. He didn't really regret it, Vietnam messed him up. But he was always proud that he Served. Maybe that's why trump and Hegseth are playing War Lord & General Patton. Badly. Hegseth Served, but doesn't get it. Trump got out of it, so with his

total lack of respect, empathy or honor, he'll never understand or get it. Serving is about doing more than yourself. There's pride in the contribution and Service. I want to give them any excuse. They don't even see those Gold Stars ....as People. To them they are just a means to an end......

I understand you flew the KC135. (I was on a B52 that was frequently kept in the air by you guys. But this was before you were even born.) Is it true that KC135s are NOW capable of being refueled themselves? Could this have been a refueling mishap between two KC135s?

Trump once said NATO has never done anything to assist USA. USA doesn’t need anyone! Remember Trump’s rants? NATO has no obligation to assist a country that started the war as opposed to defending a fellow member from a war! Now he wants or needs friends! He says he’ll remember if they don’t help! ⁉️

War should never be waged on the whims of one man. A man being manipulated by Saudi Arabia and Netanyahu. A man who is motivated by increasing his own wealth. A man who says he'll feel it in his bones when the war is over. Then he'll bomb them a couple of extra times for fun.

These fresh faced young people with a lifetime ahead of them robbed of that life by a bloated, greedy, arrogant, cowardly, demented old man who took their lives to stop his perversions being made public. They died because of the epstein files and Trumps lust for money.

And Trump doesn’t give a shit about any of them. He doesn’t understand or even feel Sympathy unless it is related to him. I think he even values himself above even his own children. Such a sad specimen of a human being. God help us.

Gold sticker and Reporter of Year plaque to whomever first asks Trump in which branch of the military is Barron enlisting in order to support his dad's war...extra sticker for follow up question asking if Barron registered for the draft at 18 which is still required by law

Preventable murder, war, corruption etc from a fascist regime in America & we're STILL HAVING FUCKING OSCARS 🖕🏻💔🖕🏻!!!!! We wouldn't even need half our truckers to shut down for a week or month, We get leverage aka power!

Major corporations aren't gonna go get workers from Mexico, Canada or Greenland... 🤣 They cant come and take all of our cars, homes, rvs, campsites, the trillion apts in this country all at once etc aka We The People have the Power. Not enough money or man power to do that ❤️💪🏻

Mass organization Stop going to work Protesting Boycotting EVERYDAY/ NIGHT Take care of one another! DEMAND term limits Affordable hcare and housing Free Childcare Ban government from stock trading Held accountable for tax spending abuse DEMAND IMPEACHMENTS AND PRISON TIME etc!

The price of unnecessary wars started by madden. We always wax elegant over the loss of our brave military people, but we dont do enough to prevent the loss of life. We brag about our superior military, but in the last several unnecessary wars, our military has not prevailed against other countries

The counts I really want to see is how many CHILDREN are losing a parent in this "excursion". How many parents a son or daughter. How many spouses. How many friends.

He had 7 mo old twins and a 2 year-old. The female soldier that was among the 6 killed in the first few days was a mom as well. It breaks my heart and completely enrages me at the same time.

At the end of the day, regular Americans with periphery or no connection to military service need to clearly understand how much this "excursion" is costing in lives forever shattered.

I asked the 117 refueling military airmen to watch my post because I am concerned that my late husbands handguns, that had been stolen, might be involved. My late husband had served federal time on RICO charges with Buddy Pruitt. Next thing I know a Pruirt is somehow a director

Im really confused on this one. Officer Cone in Ragland Alabama said we list a battle in Iraq, he is an officer and serviced 2 tours of duty in Iraq. The 117 refueling is where the young airman was serving out of Birmingham Alabama. He was shot and killed in Moody Alabama

AS A FORMER AIR FORCE VETERAN OF 177 MONTHS i FEEL BAD FOR OUR YOUNG SOLDIERS BEING KILLED IN AN UNNECESSARY INVASION OF A COUNTRY THAT WAS NOT INTERESTED IN ATTACKING AMERICA, BUT JUST BEING LEFT ALONE TO MANAGE IT'S COUNTRY JUST AS AMERICA DOES. PROVERBS CHAPTER 1 VERSES 1 TO 31 IS THE GODLY WAY

No more noble than renegade gang members on an illegal killing spree. Maybe, just maybe if the deaths ''start hitting home'' enough, this shit will be stopped. Until then, too fucking bad.

This did not need to happen.. Get rid of anyone in gov’t that supports this creep Trump .. never hated anyone before in my life and then this low, lying, scum bag steals the 2024 election.. I hate now…

Call every single senator and representative.. DO THEIR JOBS! STOP TRUMP NOW! NO War! NO Save Act! No ICE! Release the EPSTEIN files! No more lies! We are all in more danger! Our cost of living is sky rocketing! The dollar and stocks are plummeting! We are so furious about this needless insanity!!

Fury and outrage are understandable, but let's not forget: systemic change isn't as simple as flipping a switch. The Epstein files might hold truths, but without strategic action and focus, they risk gathering dust like so many past scandals. Anger needs direction to become meaningful momentum.

Trump thought so little of his country that he got 5 draft deferments. Unfortunately, he has no qualms about sending our young servicemen into harm’s way. My condolences to the families of these brave men who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.

I never used to be bothered by the idea that once you join the military you can not choose which Wars are worth joining. Last year that changed. In today's America I would never ever join the military.

SCOTUS+Congress afraid of him. We need Governors and State forces to intervene. If veterans like Mark Kelly, CQ Brown, Lisa Franchetti and other respected military leaders could stage an opposition, then soldiers will follow. Short of this, America is over, as Nazi oligarchs rule. Don't wait, ACT!
