They'd rather let the politicians buy them off.

@SoldiersWhisper Don't seem to build a whole lot more men like him in this Century of Narcissism. Still, some see bravery, and follow it's course, even yet.

Charles Durning was one of the most prolific, respected, and recognizable character actors of his generation. Films, TV, Broadway, radio -- he did it all.
During World War II, Charles Durning was the only man in his unit to actually make it onto Omaha Beach on D-Day. Sadly, the rest all perished before making it ashore.
Durning then led a charge against 7 german machine gunners, where was shot in both legs and ravaged with shrapnel. It was a miracle that he even survived. Charles Durning spent the next 6 months in a London hospital re-learning to walk and pleading with superiors to let him rejoin his unit. Tired of taking no for an answer, he busted out of the hospital and rejoined his unit in Belgium anyway.
As soon as he made it to Belgium, Durning was part of a group that was captured by German soldiers. For three days, they were forced to march through the Malmedy forest when suddenly the german soldiers opened fire on the unsuspecting POWs.
Durning was one of a handful of the 90 Americans to escape what would be known as the Malmedy Massacre, one of the worst atrocities of World War II. He would suffer severe PTSD and survivor's guilt, which at times was apparent in his on screen work.
“I saw things that nobody should ever have to see,” said Durning shortly before passing away at the age of 89. “I'll take the memory of those boys who didnt make it to the grave with me.”

The end of an era for the Union of Soviet Socialist Honky Suburbs (USSHS) with the resignation from the Oak Park Village Board of Stalin protégé, two-time recipient of the Order of Lenin and sworn enemy of Yakov Smirnoff, Comrade Susan Buchanan.
In this Buchanan classic, she employs the old Khrushchevian tactic of pounding the lectern to silence dissent over the wording of her glorious resolution to congratulate Oak Park for its diversity.
Comrade Buchanan said, in retirement she looks forward to identifying as an omnigender, Micronesian, Somali, Gazan dwarf Satanist to continue her work on behalf of diversity.

The Man We Must Remember
America has always loved its warriors. But somewhere along the way, we forgot to honor the ones who bled long before the battlefield.
We celebrate the polished. The flawless. The destined. But the soul of this country was never forged by perfect men. It was forged by those who were broken and came back harder.
Ulysses S. Grant was not born into greatness. He clawed his way through failure. Through poverty. Through obscurity. Through the humiliation of being cast out of the very institution he would one day save.
He tasted rock bottom so many times he must have made peace with the dirt. And yet, when his nation called, he answered. Not with fanfare, but with resolve. Quiet. Relentless. Unyielding.
He didn’t just win battles. He won trust. He brought simplicity to chaos and steadiness to the storm. He didn’t ask for the spotlight. He took the burden. And when the war was over, he showed the kind of mercy that only the strong can afford.
He lifted up a shattered South without bitterness. He protected the newly free at the height of their danger. He governed with a heart still open, even after years of blood.
And when life took everything... his money, his health, his strength.... he gave more. He wrote until his hand trembled and his throat burned with cancer. Not for glory. For love. So his family could live.
This is not just a man. This is the American spirit, personified.
Not invincible. But indomitable.
In another time, we might forget him. We might pick someone shinier. Someone who never fell. But not now. Not in this hour.
Because this is an hour that demands men who have fallen, and stood back up.
If we are to celebrate 250 years of @USArmy history, let us honor not just the uniforms worn, but the souls who bore them. Let us remember that what makes a leader truly great is not the absence of failure, but the courage to face it, transcend it, and serve anyway.
Ulysses S. Grant did that. Quietly. Unshakably. For all of us.
And we need his example now more than ever.

NEW: 10 inmates escape from a New Orleans jail, including a man who was convicted of four m*rders.
Local authorities have launched a full-scale search operation, telling the community to look out for the "armed and dangerous" criminals.
The inmates escaped through a hole behind a sink and toilet.
"Too easy ... catch us if you can," read the writing on the wall.
"Folks, take it seriously. We are urging the public to remain alert," said New Orleans police superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick.
At least two inmates were caught. Inmate Kendall Myles was found in the French Quarter.
"We are launching a full investigation to determine how this escape occurred, including reviewing facility protocols, staff performance and physical security measures … Any lapses or failures that contributed to this incident will be addressed swiftly and with full accountability," said Sheriff Susan Hutson.
