I spent five years, from 2006-2011 as a Sergeant in the U.S. Army.
-
There was always more to do, and the stack of files and faces never dwindled. I got half a day off every two weeks.
I had to look widows and orphans in the eye as tears ran down their cheeks telling me through an interpreter their heartbreaking stories.

-
Every mission out into the city carried with it tremendous risk, but we had a job to do, and forcibly put that out of our minds.
-
In the course of my job, I was entrusted with a lot of taxpayer money, all in American cash.
-
As a result, we instantly became a high value target for insurgents who wanted to relieve us of said cash at one of our weekly gatherings.

Yesterday,
@realDonaldTrump, a man who never served in any capacity said this about me and my brethren that served in Iraq. -
“How about bringing baskets of money — millions and millions of dollars — and handing it out?”

"I want to know who were the soldiers that had that job, because I think they’re living very well right now.”http://www.politico.com/story/2016/06/trump-us-troop-stole-millions-and-millions-in-iraq-224352#ixzz4BeZU3gsn …

I am living well right now - some student loan debt aside - but not because I pocketed the hard-earned taxpayer money that I was entrusted.
-
In my time overseas, the procedures that were put in place to prevent that from happening were frustratingly thorough.
-
The idea that Trump would call out the integrity of those who answered the call of service and deployed to a war zone is repellant.
-
For this reason, and many more, he’s proven that he’s someone with neither the temperament, nor the character, to be Commander in Chief.
-
Don’t believe him when he says he’s for Veterans. It's lip service entirely.

A lot of kids are misguided, feel they are doing right when they are destabilizing the world. You boys paved the way for ISIS.

He answered to our leaders call, he served his nation.

He served us in no tangible way. He was in over his head, serving an administration that committed war crimes.
