Our Wonderful US Vets! Many vets who are transitioning out of the US Military and back into civilian life are not the boys and girls they were before. They are mature men and women. In fact, they have grown far beyond their civilian counterparts who are the same age.I taught High School in America for 35 years. I am fully acquainted with how our education system fails our children. Truly, every generation becomes less informed as each decade passes. But The U.S. Military has excelled. They transform struggling kids into disciplined and effective warriors and servants of our country.The...

It is in “Social Science.” That’s a...
