(1) On 21/12/12, Navy SEAL Cmdr. W. Price took his own life while deployed in Afghanistan. Conspiracy "theorists" claim he was killed to cover up wrongdoing by HRC, but I'm convinced we lost this hero to combat-PTSD & suicide, & it's a cautionary tale.

(2) Yes, the article is in the failing NYT. I've found that not all of their stories are fake and anti-Trump. It's necessary to read a NYT story before deciding whether to believe it. The relevant facts in this case are drawn from the Navy's report, which appears credible to me.

(3) This story shows in stark relief what a great cost Obama's policies have been to the US and the world, and why the election of Trump & adequate congressional majorities was and is necessary for the survival of the Republic, and to have a chance at peace in the world.

(4) I hold Democrats responsible for the long defense sequester and other actions and omissions that nearly brought the US military to its knees by January 2017. We'll never know how many preventable deaths they caused among military, veterans & their families.

(5) I consider it immoral and evil to send men and women to war without adequately providing for their needs. Cmdr Price needed proper support, leadership and medical care. Sec Mattis is reforming the entire military to improve the survival odds of our heroes.

(6) It all reminds me to be grateful for the sacrifices made in the defense of the US and its allies. Please don't let Democrats win power ever again.

(7) Some great photos of Cmdr Job Price in happier times, and an article listing his many achievements. One of our generation's greatest warriors, who would have earned even higher promotions and more medals, had he lived.
