Thanks to all of you for your service.

My wife and I on Veterans day heard an interesting statistic, and we have not been able to verify it.

The stat was only 2% of Americans adults have served any time in the military.

That would mean that our retired military and disabled vets are even less of a %.

Yet our congress can’t keep its promises to those of you who gave up your young years to serve, our disabled vets and those on active duty now.

Yet congress wants to give millions of illegals everything, keeping funding the knockout kings and their queens, and fund the so many questionable disabled with no problem.

“The stat was only 2% of Americans adults have served any time in the military.”

FYI. Here’s the numbers and a link:

In U.S., 24% of Men, 2% of Women Are Veterans
