A True Patriot in Need of a Salute!!!
I just heard about a Cleveland Ohio heart surgeon by the name of Robert Stewart who has decided to set aside a 23 year career in heart surgery to enlist in the United States Army. 57 year old Doctor Stewart said he's been growing restless with the thought of wanting to help his country for the last year or so. It seems he was in college during the Vietnam conflict so was passed over for the draft and now wants to give something back to the nation that has given him so much.
Doctor Stewart, you are a truly great American!

Great post Mike. You must have had to look long and hard for it. Patriotic guys like the good doctor don't fit the template the MSM uses for stories about the military.
Look at all the hoopla the media gave to the fact that the Army missed its enlistment quotas for a few months, soemthing that happens from time to time and is no big deal.
Something the MSM never --- NEVER
--- reported about was the thousands of old (and not so old) former soldiers, sailors, airmen, marines and coast guardsmen who went back in the reserves, national guard or regular forces and volunteered for active duty after 9/11.
So true. As I believe I mentioned in an earlier post my dad wishes the Navy would take him back for another round. He's already given them 27 years and is a great American in his own right!
