GodsAngell, where did hear what General Milley’s response was to Pelosi about Trump’s nuke codes and about Milley supporting Trump right now. Not trying to call you out just want to verify myself before I get to feeling good about it because that would be great news. I never doubted the rank file in the military supports Trump by overwhelming numbers but I have serious doubts that’s the case in the Pentagon, and being a veteran myself I know following orders is drilled into our military men and women. “ Ours not to reason why, ours but to do and die.”

I went to assault boat coxswain school on Coronado Island in San Diego while in the Navy, the SEALs would do a lot of training there too, and we all eat at the same chow hall. I remember some would quote that part of the poem. First time I heard it.

The rest of the verse:

“ Theirs was not to make reply, Theirs was not to reason why, Theirs but to do and die. Into the valley of Death Rode the six hundred.”

Alfred Lord Tennyson
