On 20 November 2015, Delta Force operator Kyle Morgan wasn’t supposed to be fighting a war. He was serving as a Special Operations Advisor to the US Embassy in Mali. But when heavily armed terrorists seized the Radisson Blu Hotel and started taking dozens of innocent lives, he didn’t wait for a green light. For hours, Morgan and a small, makeshift team of international assets cleared seven floors under heavy fire in close quarters. Because of his decisive actions, dozens of civilians made it home alive. For his extraordinary valor, he was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross, the nation's second highest award for heroism in combat. But Kyle’s toughest battle didn't happen in a hotel in Africa. It happened when he took the uniform off. After 11 years in the Army’s most elite Tier 1 unit, the echoes of combat followed him home. Morgan has spoken openly about the brutal reality of the transition: sustaining multiple traumatic brain injuries, battling severe PTSD, and surviving a near fatal substance overdose. Today, he uses that same relentless warrior spirit to fight a new mission. He helps others build a "Protector Mindset" and navigate the darkest corners of mental health and recovery. True strength isn't just about how you handle a rifle in a crisis. It’s about how you rebuild your life when the smoke finally clears.

1st SFOD-D (Delta Force) A Squadron operator Sergeant Major Lee Vampola. Lee enlisted in the Army as an infantryman in March 2004. After completing his training, he completed Ranger School and served in 3rd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment at Fort Benning, Georgia. Followed by a tour with the United Nations Command in South Korea in 2007, he was assigned to the US Army Special Operations Command, and in 2012 he successfully screened and was selected to serve in Delta Force as an operator. Lee earned many awards for valor during his service, deploying to Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, and other nations that remain unnamed. In February 15, 2024, just a few weeks shy of his 20th year of military service, Lee took his own life. He is remembered as a loving husband, father, son, and friend. Not forgotten.

Please help me honor Major Keith A. Butler, US Army Green Beret and CIA contractor. Trained as a medic and weapons specialist, he served in most of the conflicts that defined recent American history. Panama, Honduras, Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan. Keith completed 44 combined combat missions across Iraq and Afghanistan alone. He was at Forward Operating Base Chapman in Khowst on 30 December 2009 when a Jordanian double agent detonated a suicide vest inside the compound. Seven CIA officers were killed. Keith survived. Afterward he quoted Thomas Paine in a note to his colleagues: “Those who want to reap the benefits of this great nation must bear the fatigue of supporting it.” He told them to make their lives worthy of the honor of those who fell. Then he stayed in the fight for another five years. Major Butler was killed in action in Afghanistan on 10 May 2014. He was 56 years old. At an age when most men are thinking about retirement and grandkids, he was still in the mountains, advising local soldiers and running missions. Green Beret, combat medic, CIA paramilitary. The quiet professional who stayed in the fight to the end. Rest easy, Major. Not forgotten.

Today is June 12th, 2026 and the A-10 is still in service. For reference, a conservative estimate to operate 126 A-10s is $1.3B updating fuselages/wings/engines and $500M per year O&M cost. The funding the AF is asking for would pay for 25 years of BRRRRT!!! @SecArmy @officialCSAF @RepAbeHamadeh @RepSarahElfreth @RepPatFallon @derrickvanorden @RepJohnMcGuire @RepPfluger @TimSheehyMT @SenMarkKelly @Eric_Schmitt @SASCGOP @SASCDems @HASCRepublicans @HASCDemocrats @OnesReady @DaleStarkA10 @ShawnRyanShow @SRS_Producer @EvanHafer @joerogan @A10TheHog @ThunderCrate6

Today is June 10th, 2026 and the A-10 is still in service. Last week the OA-1K wasn’t a U-28 replacement… now the it’s an “exquisite” intel platform… that might shoot cruise missiles. Reality: It’s less capable & more costly than current inventory. Wake up people! @SecArmy @officialCSAF @RepAbeHamadeh @RepSarahElfreth @RepPatFallon @derrickvanorden @RepJohnMcGuire @RepPfluger @TimSheehyMT @SenMarkKelly @Eric_Schmitt @SASCGOP @SASCDems @HASCRepublicans @HASCDemocrats @OnesReady @DaleStarkA10 @ShawnRyanShow @SRS_Producer @EvanHafer @joerogan @A10TheHog @ThunderCrate6

On this day, 30 years ago, a team of Navy SEALs stormed Alcatraz with unmatched courage, discipline, and stoic resolve. They faced impossible odds, fought with everything they had, and ultimately gave their lives in that fateful shower room ambush, true warriors to the end. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten. #TheRock @MichaelBiehn
