Meanwhile I'm talking with French people about what an actual civil war will look like. Maybe like the Austrian civil war between the two world wars, where the countryside bombed the city? ICE is funded to be the third largest military in the world. How can anyone sign off on what is happening […]

Friendly reminder that the US military has only been used to defend this country's freedom 4 times throughout our existence. The American Revolution, the war of 1812, the American civil war, and WWII. THATS IT! Fight me.

I agree. But if a civil war breaks out, The People will win - based on numbers and the fact most US citizens already own guns. That's only if the military stays firm in their commitment not to kill their fellow countrywomen/men.

Kinda pulling on a thread tonight wondering what it would look like to have a bold Christian countercultural vision against the US civil religion around military "service".

Then again...if it does come down to the civil war that Trump seems to be trying to get, having so many highly competent former military people available can only be good news for those attempting to preserve the Constitutional order.

This is a beautiful perspective on service. Not just military service, but for all who show up for their community with the intent to contribute selflessly to make things better. (Of course, there are those who enter the civil service realm with nefarious intentions, but that's a different subject.)

No Western democracy has para-military and military forces on the street for a domestic issue as the USA does. The vast majority of civil discourse no longer is outraged over their presence. It’s outraged over => their conduct. Trump has in the space of months normalised military/para-military

Even if that were the case, frankly especially if that were the case, guess which government has been sheltering and supporting the ELN for years? Chavez-Maduro.
Y'all should look up the events of 1985 apropos the Palace of Justice in Bogota. Colombian civil-military relations is a strange world.

Isn't the Colombian military engaging the ELN in combat along the Venezuelan border? Strange to call it kidnapping.

‼️174 black US soldiers are buried or memorialized at Margraten.
‼️The second panel provided information on the "strict policy of segregation" in the U.S. military during World War II and the journey of many soldiers into postwar civil rights movements.

Venezuela is preparing a guerrilla-style defence if the US attacks, Reuters reports.
The plan involves scattering small units nationwide to sabotage invading forces and potentially creating street chaos in Caracas to make the country ungovernable.

Tribes in Az had ancient science, cultural/spiritual practices, & ritualized ways of dealing with incest, birth defects, and tribal solidarity. It all gets disrupted by the Spanish in NM & southern Az. Then during the post Civil war military genocides.

![1941–1947: Military service
Stewart became the first major American movie star to enlist in the United States Army to fight in World War II.[107] His family had deep military roots: both of his grandfathers had fought in the Civil War,[108] and his father had served during both the Spanish–American War and World War I.[109] After first being rejected for low weight in November 1940, he enlisted in February 1941.[110][a] As an experienced pilot, he reported for induction as a private in the Air Corps on March 22, 1941.[112] Soon to be 33 years old, he was over the age limit for Aviation Cadet training—the normal path of commissioning for pilots, navigators and bombardiers—and therefore applied for an Air Corps commission as both a college graduate and a licensed commercial pilot.[113] Stewart received his commission as a second lieutenant on January 1, 1942.[114]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Stewart
Stewart was first nominated for promotion to brigadier general in February 1957; however, his promotion was initially opposed by Senator Margaret Chase Smith.[130] At the time of the nomination, the Washington Daily News noted: "He trains actively with the Reserve every year. He's had 18 hours as first pilot of a B-52."[131] On July 23, 1959, Stewart was promoted to brigadier general, becoming the highest-ranking actor in American military history.[132] During the Vietnam War, he flew as a non-duty observer in a B-52 on an Arc Light bombing mission in February 1966.[133] He served for 27 years, officially retiring from the Air Force on May 31, 1968, when he reached the mandatory retirement age of 60.[134] Upon his retirement, he was awarded the Air Force Distinguished Service Medal.[135] Stewart rarely spoke about his wartime service[136] but did appear in an episode of the British television documentary series The World at War (1974), commenting on the disastrous 1943 mission against Schweinfurt, Germany.[137]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2tfdyd4zbroc4p6ys6ajluos/bafkreibx6q3dlioh75pkxvmkfcm2bza7ah3wp4rxtg7quloi3hef2p5tgu@jpeg)

Two conflicts I have no interest in.
To be fair, with the exception of the Pacific Theater in WWII, my military history interest ends around the Civil War.

The now common practice of limiting the meaning of “service” only to military service devalues the dedication and in many cases the sacrifices made by those in the civil service and other public service.
A nation’s strength isn’t measured by its words — it’s measured by how it treats those who served. Join me and Dr. Joe Robinson, Worcester’s Director of Veterans Services, in thanking Massachusetts veterans for their service and recommitting to meeting their service with action.

This is my great-great-great grandpa. He immigrated to the US in 1843 with his infant son after having served in the Prussian military. When the American Civil started, his eldest son was 17 so he lied about his age to join the 13th Inf. Co. G to fight instead. I put his story in the alt text
