Hmmm... I like the introductions idea here ;)

I've been serving with the Army for seven years now. I am an Army active duty Veteran, I served with the 10th Mountain Division as an infantryman for four years and deployed to Iraq twice during that tenure. I am currently serving my fourth year with the California National Guard, still as an infantryman, and am actually again in Iraq right now.

I don't care for the institution that is the American military, I think it's become too large, too bureaucratic, and too large of a danger to liberty. When my contract ends, I'm out, but there has not been a single day that I have not been more proud to be amongst the company I am currently serving with.

I try my best to share the message of liberty when I can with my brothers-in-arms and I have been under the suspicion that many soldiers are true lovers of liberty in their hearts and perhaps even closet or reluctant libertarians.

I am proud to have served in the Army National Guard, and Operation Desert Storm. I hope some day we humans can deal with eachother without needing a huge millitary, but until that time there is no finer millitary on the globe (appologies to other nationalities I am biased on this one issue sorry).

Greetings,
I'm a U.S. Navy veteran, served with the Marines as a medic in the Fleet Marine Force. I did my best to spread the Libertarian message of Freedom to all our veterans and what our true role should be as America's military, not the World's Policemen!
in liberty, Patrick Hubble
