Happy Flag Day from the BCS-Allegient team! Today, we honor the symbol of our nation's unity, freedom, and pride. The American flag represents the values and ideals that our country stands for, and it serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by servicemen and women to protect and preserve our freedoms. Let's take a moment to reflect on the significance of this day and the emblem that unites us all. #FlagDay #AllegientDefense #Patriotism #UnitedWeStand #USA #GodblessAmerica #OldGlory #Veterans

Paws of War recently hosted a reunion event for three soldiers who, for the first time since their deployment, were reunited with the dogs they cared for and rescued while serving overseas in Eastern Europe. The three soldiers traveled to Nesconset, NY from Colorado and Rhode Island to officially adopt these beloved animal friends. Paws of War is also raising awareness about the cost of Paws of War’s mission and effort to return 18 more dogs from the same overseas region. As part of its War-Torn Pups and Cats program, Paws of War recently rescued Ace, Shadow, Runtie and Racha from a military base in Eastern Europe, where they then safely travelled to the organization’s HQ in Nesconset. The four pups were struggling to survive without food and water before they were rescued by the three soldiers. Paws of War is currently on a mission to bring 18 more dogs home safely to the U.S. These four dogs are just a few of the more than 60 rescues of dogs and cats that Paws of War currently has underway around the world. These rescue missions cost thousands of dollars per animal. All expenses are covered by Paws of War. https://lnkd.in/eXZDCGUc #Veterans #ptsdawareness #ptsdrecovery #ptsd #veterans #servicedog #dog #warrior

Today's an important day to honor our veterans! More specifically, the K9 ones! March 13th is #k9 Veterans Day 🐶 🐾 Here's some interesting information from the American Kennel Club website on the history of dogs in the US Military: "The states had an unofficial canine war force in World War I, but military dogs did not become officially recognized until March 13, 1942, when a private organization, Dogs for Defense was established to recruit the public’s dogs for the U.S. military’s War Dog Program, known as the K-9 Corps." "Dogs’ sense of smell is roughly 50 times better than ours, meaning they can sniff out IEDs before they detonate and injure or kill U.S. servicemen in the prolonged Afghanistan and Iraq conflicts. Ground patrols are able to uncover only 50 percent of these, but with dogs, the detection rate increases to 80 percent, claims the Defense Department."

#Marines with Detachment #Delta, 4th Law Enforcement Battalion, Marine Forces Reserve, sorted and delivered thousands of toys throughout #Alaska’s Northwest Arctic Borough Dec. 4 – 20. Alaska’s Northwest Arctic Borough boasts a population of under 7,800 residents residing within 11 different communities, many of whom are Alaskan Natives. Infrastructure is extremely limited to the villages and towns of the borough, making #airplanes the only means of travel available year-round. Despite significant logistical challenges, the #AlaskaMarines, based out of Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson in Anchorage, traveled hundreds of miles on snowmobiles to deliver toys to eagerly awaiting children. In total, more than 30,000 toys were collected, sorted, and shipped throughout the state. More than 14,000 of those toys were distributed to remote areas of the state, such as the #NorthwestArcticBorough. For more information: https://bit.ly/47gVTFu

It shouldn't be an uphill battle for our veterans to access the services they've earned. Streamlining access to support resources isn't just a convenience—it's a moral imperative, honoring their sacrifices with the ease and dignity they deserve. More to follow shortly on this. #VeteransServices #AccessibilityMatters #HonoringOurHeroes #StreamlineSupport #EaseTheProcess #DignityForVeterans #SimplifyAccess #SupportOurTroops

Very good insight on what morale is and isn’t, why it’s important and how to maintain a high morale.
60 MINUTES asked CAPT Chris “Chowdah” Hill how he keeps high morale on the USS Eisenhower #CVN69 as they patrol the southern Red Sea. The Way of the Warrior Sailor Philosophy > It's a good model for the Navy, for any organization, for anywhere else on the planet. ✔ 💯 Making waves on TikTok. Nice! #usnavy #60minutes #redsea #leadership #morale

Israel is committing genocide and our government is helping them do it. In the past 5 months, Israel has killed OVER 13,000 CHILDREN, has orphaned over 30,000 more children, & has made around 1 MILLION CHILDREN homeless during winter. And Israel is still blocking aid to these children, killing them with starvation, dehydration, & disease, in addition to U.S. supplied bombs and ammunition. I also cry for the 36 innocent Israeli children killed on October 7th, but this horrible conflict did NOT start on that day. The proof is the nearly 2300 Palestinian children Israeli soldiers and settlers killed between the year 2000 and October 2023, including 43 children during the 9 months just before October 7th (all names & details documented on BTselem.org). Israel has also imposed a brutal 57 year occupation/apartheid on Palestinians, as well as a brutal blockade of Gaza since 2005. Both are illegal under international law, immoral, and ongoing acts of war. PLEASE WRITE & CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES & the White House to demand they stop helping Israel kill & starve children, commit war crimes, & maintain its brutal & racist apartheid, with our tax dollars. What would you do if someone stole your house and livelihood, killed some of your family, and left the rest of you with nothing to live in the squalor of a refugee camp, where your children were still not safe from Israeli bombs, bullets, and boots? Because that is what Israel did to over 750,000 Palestinians in 1948, over 300,000 in 1967, and over 250,000 since then, and more every year. Most of the families in Gaza owned homes, farms, or shops where Israeli cities and towns now stand, which Israel literally stole from them. Many still even have the keys to their homes, and some homes still stand with Jewish immigrants living in them today. Palestinians have been trying to protest peacefully for decades, but when they do, Israeli soldiers shoot them in the knees, kill them, or at least imprison and beat them. If you don't believe it, please google this 2020 Haaretz article titled: '42 Knees in One Day': Israeli Snipers Open Up About Shooting Gaza Protesters. It describes how IDF snipers would shoot many peaceful protesters in the kneecaps and ankles to cripple them, while shooting and killing many others, including journalists and medics. And if you still believe the lie that Israel has offered Palestinians many generous peace deals that they keep rejecting, please read and share this article: https://lnkd.in/g2_EV6dV Finally, please watch and share this report on how The NY Times article on Oct 7th rapes has fallen apart, joining the disproven 40 beheaded babies lie in the long list of Israeli lied used to justify its ethnic cleansing and genocide in Gaza: https://lnkd.in/g7eRMNr4
Is the day coming when people in uniform refuse to oppress, kill and die serving the interests of the ultra rich? There can be no wars of profit or imperialist genocides without soldiers willing to fight illegal and immoral forever wars that serve no purpose beyond further enriching the already obscenely wealthy war profiteers of our world. In Solidarity 🕊️❤️🩹 https://lnkd.in/gfnKR2_s
