#GREEN BERET

[kemetic-dreams]

Melvin Morris became a Green Beret in 1961. Many years later in 2014 he received the Medal of Honor for his heroism in Vietnam when he used a small number of available grenades to repel a larger enemy force. He was shot several times during the encounter, but he survived the war and is currently 79 years old.

The Green Beret who shot himself seconds before the Tesla Cybertruck he rented went up in a fiery explosion outside Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas on New Year’s Day referred to the event as “a wake up call” and effort to rid himself of the “burden” of the lives he took in combat. He also advocated a Jan. 6-like takeover of federal buildings and the ouster of Democrats from government and the military.

“Try peaceful means first, but be prepared to fight to get the Dems out of the fed government and military by any means necessary,” he wrote. “They all must go and a hard reset must occur for our country to avoid collapse.”

“Fellow Servicemembers, Veterans and all Americans, TIME TO WAKE UP! We are being led by weak and feckless leadership who only serve to enrich themselves,” Matthew Livelsberger wrote on one of two iPhones retrieved from the vehicle, in what police call two letters and a journal detailing his preparations in the 10 days leading up to his suicide.

This very same G.I. Joe was the first I ever received.  I don’t even remember what else I got that Christmas because I spent the whole day playing with this.

I was very upset the following morning when I could not find him anywhere.  Me sainted mum, seeing how distraught I was, showed me where he was hidden amongst the branches of the Christmas tree.    I was doubly shocked when I saw that his face was covered with camouflage paint, there was a bandana around his head with tiny twigs stuck in it, and other modifications had been made to his uniform so he blended in better with the tree.

Mum explained that me sainted da had stayed up most of the night playing with G.I. Joe!  Da decided that Joe’s jungle warfare uniform wasn’t authentic enough, so he took it upon himself to make the modifications to make Joe more “realistic.”

I was so glad Da had to go back to work the next day so I didn’t have to share Joe anymore.  That is, until my younger brothers started showing up soon thereafter.
