Frank Tooley, Korean Prisoner of War
- By James Moore
For a 19 year old barefoot cotton farm worker turned curb hopper from the farm country of Greenville County, the North Korean invasion of South Korea meant only one thing; a trip abroad was inevitable. Frank Tooley, who had already been drafted, knew that it was only a matter of time before Uncle Sam came and asked for his service in the American military intervention. Knowing that if he was drafted the Army would send him where he was needed, Tooley felt that it would be best if he joined on his own free will. Curious about whether he would pass the physical or not, Tooley joined his brother and some friends as they went to visit the doctor.

Serious Concerns Regarding Downgrade of Force Structure Prompts Congressional Action
South Carolina Republican Congressman Joe Wilson, a senior member of the House Armed Services Committee, has announced that “serious concerns have been brought to light regarding proposed changes to Army force structure, especially the proposed Army Aviation restructuring plan.”
In order to attempt to head off a major national defense shortcoming, Wilson and a group of 16 bipartisan co-sponsors have introduced H. R. 3930, the National Commission on the Structure of the Army Act of 2014. The commission would recommend necessary force structures to meet future military force structure needs of the nation.

The AGC Ensuring Quality Military Chaplains
- By James Moore
As America progresses into tomorrow there is a call for all lifestyles to be accepted. As lifestyles are to be accepted, Christian beliefs come under more scrutiny. For Chaplains working in a military that is becoming a melting pot of all that is America, pressure for them to not be offensive is increasing in strength.
Since the repeal of the ban on homosexuals in the military and the Supreme Court striking down the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act, things have become more difficult for Christian Chaplains in the military. While their duties have become more difficult, nothing has change in regards to the law of religious freedoms.
The Associated Gospel Churches (AGC) is an organization which recruits and stands by Chaplains when they find themselves in situations of discrimination or pressures to conform.

We Never Learn from History Because Factual History is Not Taught
Thousands of Americans died and even more were wounded in action in Vietnam. The wounded combat veterans would be handicapped for the remainder of their lives. The military won every battle during the Vietnam War, however, the Communist influence on members of congress led to the United States cutting off all funds for both the American and South Vietnamese military, and South Vietnam was abandoned to the Communist invaders without meaningful resistance.

DOD Making Plans to Close Military Commissaries
- By Bob Dill, Publisher
Benefit to Troops and Families Second only to Medical Care
The Obama Department of Defense is seriously considering closing all military commissaries as part of the 2015 Defense Budget.
Closing 178 stores in the United States and 70 overseas, the closing would save approximately $1.4 billion annually. Salaries for employees are included in the Defense Budget. Commissary customers pay a 5 percent surcharge on all purchases in the stores to fund construction and maintenance of facilities, equipment and supplies. Titles to the multi-million dollar facilities paid for by troops and their families are donated to the government. It is a good deal for the taxpayers.
