An article posted in the Navy Times magazine dated "09.18.17". Personally, I thought it was the most ridiculous and ill-minded submission Navy Times has ever posted. I honestly have a hard time believing such a person would for one, believe what they were writing and two, submit it to a "military magazine." The fact Navy Times would even publish this non-sense is beyond me.

I'm under the impression that the person was "trolling" using 'advanced sarcasm', but many people are not so convinced. I'm sure there will be quite a few responses come next week's article.

Historically rewriting history is what causes an event again. A lack of understanding of the past breeds for the same mistakes tomorrow.

Correct, those who do not learn from histories mistakes are doomed to repeat those mistakes. History is what it is, learn from it but other wise leave it alone.

Read 1984, the point being Big Brothers increase of the Chocolate Ration. It isn't necessary some states have been doing it for 100 years. Truth belongs to the victor.
There is no reason for us to have to put up with this

Did he seriously just suggest that we become like the Soviets?! Good God. Apparently, he's never seen a Bear Bomber overflying his ship, escorted by Tomcats like i have.

LTC Orlando Illi I nominate this post, Colonel.

@ Sn Greg Wright. The letter came
From Norman Polmar to Navy Times, PO1(verify to see) submitted it. The guy who wrote it is all immersed in p.c. And seriously needs Psychiatric care in a rubber
Room with the rest of the snowflakes affected by political korrektness.
