MASKS: Bring up the guns

| November 18, 2020 1:00 AM

I spent 31 years in the Army as a medic (CMB). From October 1967 to 1969 I was 2/6Mike for A/2nd Bn/28th Inf/ BIG RED ONE!

The medical care of that platoon was my responsibility, but what I learned was that the platoon made me their responsibility. I checked their health daily and they kept me safe in firefights. When someone was hit before I went forward, they always brought the guns up to protect me.

Kootenai County, it’s time to bring the guns up and protect our health care workers, neighbors, family and friends. This is no brainer stuff. I mean golly heckfire, folks, please be my platoon and protect me and the rest of Idaho!
