Rescue of Roger Locher--Veterans Day
Veterans, at one point in their lives, wrote a blank check made payable “to the United States of America” for an amount “up to and including their life. On Veterans Day and every day, we Honor, respect, and extend a sincere thank you to all Veterans and active duty personnel for their service to the Republic. We especially Honor all Wounded Combat Veterans, and the families of all Fallen Veterans who gave the last full measure of devotion to the Republic. We are encouraging all Americans to reflect upon what the US Military leadership did, in order to save one American life, in days gone by; please click on the below listed link to watch the video and comprehend the important message.

It is the responsibility of the National Command Authority to do everything possible to protect Americans who are sent “Into Harm’s Way”. Now kindly remember how the current resident of the White House and his Secretary of Defense reacted while they watched a live visual feed from a drone flying over the US Consulate in Benghazi, Libya for 7 hours, compare that to Roger Locher’s rescue. During the Al Q’ieda coordinated attack on the US Consul in Benghazi, two US Navy SEALS and the US Ambassador were urgently and repeatedly requesting protection from the White House Situation Room, the Pentagon, the CIA, the US State Department, and many other locations receiving the feed while US military support was, in one case, less than 1 hour away.
