Notice how she tries to talk over him once he corrects her that he didn’t exonerate Joe Biden.

They don’t really define what they want to do because fake conservatives love doing that. However, Pence people did allude to free trade and allowing tariffs to be issued on American goods while not responding to those countries with tariffs of our own. Oh, and they LIED about Trump’s tariff plan.

Understanding Military Traditions: Exploring the Why Behind the What
Introduction
Welcome readers to the “Common Veterans Podcast: Season 1 Addendum,” where we delve into the rich tapestry of military traditions, unraveling their deeper meanings and historical significance. We’ll uncover why these practices endure, shedding light on the unique mindset and sense of humor prevalent among military members.
The Purpose of Traditions
Military traditions are more than rituals; they serve as threads weaving together the fabric of camaraderie, honor, and history within the armed forces. Understanding their origins provides a deeper appreciation for the cultural backbone of military life.
Traditions Are Traditional
The Salute
From its roots in the Middle Ages as a gesture of peace to its modern-day symbolism of respect and recognition, the salute is a cornerstone of military etiquette.
Taps and Reveille
The solemnity of waking to a cornet’s notes and the symbolism behind honoring the national colors being lowered underscore the reverence for duty and sacrifice.
Covers (Hats) Outside
Beyond fashion, these headpieces signify protection, camouflage, and a visible marker of rank, fostering a sense of unity and distinction among service members.
Being Pinned
The act of pinning, whether for rank or awards, represents a badge of honor earned through dedication, sacrifice, and the pursuit of excellence. It‘s a tangible symbol of one’s journey and accomplishments.
Because We Can
Military balls, replete with unique rituals like the Army’s “Grogg” or the Air Force‘s “Jeff,” offer glimpses into the unit’s identity and shared experiences, strengthening bonds among comrades.
Beyond physical fitness, PT instills discipline and preparedness, while uniforms promote unity and morale—a visual representation of a collective identity.
Hazing
A controversial practice that, in elite units, serves to test resilience and integration. Stories from these experiences illuminate the dynamics within these specialized circles.
