Today marks the one-year anniversary of my leaving the Army. As most of you know, I left the military due to lost career opportunities resulting from refusing to receive the COVID shot. Not taking the shot was one of the most difficult decisions I had to make in my life and was not a clear-cut issue for me at the time. However, through prayer and discernment, God led me through His peace to refuse the COVID shot as the most perfect way of obeying His will.
Though the exit from service was bitter sweet, I am now incredibly grateful to God for the way in which He has been guiding my life throughout the last year. Upon leaving the military, I immediately attended an Ignatian retreat to dispose myself to know the will of God and have the grace to fulfill it. Not long after that, my first op-ed was providentially published in
@Floridianpress
on the feast day of St. Ignatius of whom my retreat was styled. I could never have anticipated the direction God would take my life after that.
I immediately met an amazing network of former and active veterans dedicated to fighting for service members against the COVID vaccine mandate and for the future of our country. Among them are some of the most honorable and courageous people I know. Together we are working to raise awareness on what happened/is happening to our military, to get reparations for service members negatively impacted by the VAX mandate, and to hold DoD leadership responsible for the VAX mandate accountable.
I was invited onto multiple interviews and felt the urge to go to DC myself to advocate on behalf of service members negatively impacted by the COVID vaccine. I found myself on interviews with

and was able to get an op-ed published in
@BreitbartNews

Together with 230 brave former and active service members, we signed the Declaration of Military Accountability where we pledged to hold DoD leadership accountable. Since its release on New Year’s Day, we have received tens of thousands of signatures in support of our movement.
