Again, I think this is much ado about nothing.
Swords are not even mandatory uniform items anymore (sadly).
There is plenty out there to be upset about with this president - but it seems some people just want to blame everything they don’t like or that sounds a bit funny to them on Obama. There’s something to be said for picking your battles people...

If you mean the Naval Academy, I agree. I was referencing the U.S. Navy itself. Thanks!

Just a stickler. ;-) After all, it’s the Academy that would feature a venue for guest speakers who might take the swords.

Yep, I'm a big flag waver and interested in all things military.
Also enjoy studying military history. I'm slogging through Churchill's history of WWII right now. Not surprisingly, Winston was right about 99% of what needed to be done, but nevertheless he has fascinating details in his account.

What an insult from the CIC (Coward in Chief).
He used food tasters in France.

He used food tasters in France. Hey, I'd use food tasters in France. Their personal hygiene and overall cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired.
