Reflecting on the past, I found my old Navy ID card, which stirred waves of nostalgia. Reminding me of the discipline, camaraderie, and resilience instilled through military service. As discussion about the new veterans card mounts online, it's a poignant reminder of the evolution in the recognition and respect we afford to our veterans. In the current socio-political climate, the suggestion of training citizens for warfare, as put forth by Gen Sanders, has raised eyebrows. Military service is more than just skill acquisition, it's about dedication, discipline, and duty - qualities that cannot be transplanted. While I respect General Sanders' perspective that "armed citizens still win modern wars", I believe that professionals should be engaged for this purpose, trained not just in warfare, but in upholding the ethos of honour, courage, and commitment. As a proud former Royal Marine, I stand against the idea of training citizens for warfare. Is the answer really in “training and equipping” a new citizen army or do we need to re-think our approach to national security and defence? I would love to hear your thoughts on this. #VeteransCard #NationalSecurity #DefenceStrategy #MilitaryService

#Reminder: 🧱 Brick orders run through Sunday, March 31. 🧱 🧱 Leave a lasting legacy to a family member or loved one that served in a branch of the United States Armed Forces with the Town of Jupiter’s Veterans Memorial Legacy Brick program. 🧱 The Town of Jupiter Veterans Memorial was opened in 2020 and is dedicated to remembering and honoring the men and women who have served in the United States Armed Forces, as well as those Gold Star families who have had a loved one make the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. How the Legacy Brick Program will work: 🧱 Each brick will have two options: 1. A message with no branch insignia: these bricks will include four (4) lines of text, with a maximum of 21 characters per line. 2. A message containing a branch insignia: these bricks will include an insignia of the United States Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines or Coast Guard as well as four (4) lines of text with 15 characters per line. • All bricks will be a red charcoal color to match the current bricks found at the Veterans Memorial. • Each brick will cost $100, which will include the production of the brick as well as its installation. • Space is limited and bricks will be placed on a first-come, first-served basis. If the space sells out, the Town will explore additional areas after the completion of the construction of the new Town Hall building. 🚫 No political statements will be allowed as a part of this memorial program. The Town of Jupiter reserves the right to refuse any message or the placement of a brick. 🔗 For more information and to order a brick, visit https://lnkd.in/eJ38esAt. If you have any questions about the program, email CommunityRelations@jupiter.fl.us.
