Fair winds sailors and thank you for your service to your country.
ReplyDeleteIt appears to me that these Navy Sailors were immigrants to our Country.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what is the % of Navy Sailors who are immigrants?
Do any of the commenters know?
Who knows who cares but I guarantee they are LEGAL just like my grandparents!!!
DeleteThese were men of the United States Navy. Legal citizens of the United States. Does it really matter that they were immigrants? No!! What matters is we lost 7 United States Navy Servicemen in a traggic accident.
DeleteTerribly sad. RIP. Also saw that the man released from N Korea has died.
ReplyDelete4:50 even if we did it has no bearing on this tragedy.
ReplyDeleteCondolences to the families of these sailors.
ReplyDelete4:50, they all had one thing in common. They were all American Patriots serving in foreign territory putting their very lives on the line every day protecting YOU and your family and neighbors.
ReplyDeleteWhat more information do you need?
I suggest a lot of service people are immigrants.
ReplyDeleteThey are running out of American kids to kill in these illegal wars.
So pretty good bet the majority of the military are now from other countries trying to "earn their way" to citizenship by killing for the bankers.
Just a guess though.
Fair winds and following seas my Navy brothers. May you rest in peace and be remembered for your sacrifice to our country. I salute you.
