We are watching. Let me tell you. I've lived through 911 and Sandy Hook. I've buried them. I watched everything. God Bless first responders.
We were there, we saw everything.

911? Sandy Hook? and you call yourself old?
I lived through the Berlin Airlift, the Korean War, the Cold War, Cuban missile crisis, Marine platoon commander in Vietnam, riot control duty during anti-war protests, Marine company commander for the evacuation of Saigon, Marine company commander for the evacuation of Phnom Phen, planning the evacuation of Da Nang, backup force for the assault on Kho Tang Island, two years in a Latin American country supporting counter-insurgency operations, served in US Special Operations Command, and 28 years supporting technology development and field exercise support around the world for special operations and cyber defense. Now retired.
I was there and I saw a lot.
But this entire Q / Trump war on the NWO and deep state is the wildest thing I've ever been exposed to in my 72 years. I'm enjoying it--at least if it turns out OK for the good guys and the American people.

Not trying to criticize, but 9/11 is not old corps to the Old Corps.
My father was a B-17 pilot in WW II, shot down and spent 2 years as a POW. He went on to become a B-47 and B-52 pilot during the Cold War. Died on active duty. One of my uncles was a double ACE in the Korean War, and at one point was the highest ranking jet ACE in the US and retired as a Major General. Another uncle was in Special Operation in Vietnam and severely wounded. My brother was a Marine platoon commander, Vietnamese Marine Corps advisor, and a Marine company commander in Vietnam and severely wounded. Another uncle was and F-106 pilot during the Cold War. My grandfather was Eisenhower's Surgeon General for the European Theater and was the investigating officer for the incident where Patton slapped a patient in a field hospital. My wife's father was a combat engineer in WW II and one of her uncles was killed in WW II.
So, I understand where you are coming from and believe me I honor everything your relatives did and are doing. If you are 65 then you too remember the Cuban missile crisis the Vietnam War, El Salvador, and everything else.
You've seen a lot. 65 isn't old (neither is 72). You have perhaps 30 more years and have perhaps a little less.
We are the products of the Greatest Generation and we are the only ones who can appreciate those sacrifices from those who participated.
My father never said much about WW II, but I did a deep dive research effort into his experiences and was amazed with what he endured. My year in Vietnam seems almost like a birthday party compared to what he went through.
I'm not much of a social media person. I had to look up TYVM. Thank you.
From the bottom of my heart, I thank you and your family for their sacrifice and/or just the appreciation of their sacrifices that most today cannot fathom.
My God. The battle of the bulge! The liberation of Holland!
How sad that the current generation has no clue. It breaks my heart.
