6 Bronze Stars, 1 Purple Heart and 9 deployments

Hi Mikey,

Just to give you some info to add to the demographics of the type of people who need, and appreciate the services all of you at MRFF are doing, my husband is a (Senior Non-Commissioned Officer in a significant Green Beret leadership position). He has received 6 Bronze Stars with Vs for Valor and a Purple Heart during his nine deployments in the War on Terror. Yet, let him mention he’s not a Christian, and the lecturing on being a “good soldier” begins.

Thank you for all you do Mikey. My husband called today and I actually read the hate mail you’d received calling you a Kike and all of the other racial slurs contained. He was mortified and thinks people like this are a much bigger threat to military cohesion than a few of us non-theists.
