BTW I am here because of Puerto Rico too. My dad's dad had finished up or was just about
done with Perdue University when WW I came along and instead of getting drafted he joined
up and since he was good @ what we now call logistics they asked if he wanted to go to P.R.
where the military was shipping a lot of stuff to Europe from. But they told him that there
was one catch and that was he would never be an officer to which he said that he was OK w/
that.

BTW I think my grandfather got his stay out of it smarts from his grandfather (?) because his
family was living around the little town of Kessel, VA before it became W.V. and he saw the
shit coming and decided that corn farming and making clay drainage tiles in Indiana might be
a good move.

Trump is a traitor to America. End of story.
