DAC - Thank You I. C.

A person you applicates and pattist for privateness, what my any event, the witness we let day, the team that is, we are the proper focusing network. Hello everyone out there on Internet radio land, this is Dave Jones the NBC and I'm coming to you on a Friday. How about that, man, Friday. We had half a day today at school, so I got home early. Here it's beautiful outside, it's perfect weather, and Maria has a list longer than i'll get to today. But I got to say thank you to the intrepid commander because man, he's really boosting my ego giving me all these accolades. And I'm just a regular guy. I'm just a guy that has had, you know, different experiences. And I'm just the guy I mean. Okay, So maybe I should explain. He named the month of Challengers after a quote, too many firsts. I have a lot of quotes. Too many firsts. Establish your position, improve upon it daily. I have a bunch of things. But let me tell you about too many firsts. So when I was in Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency and I was the watch officer, I was the one that trained all the other agency reps that came into the Emergency Operations Center, and I would have a day of orientation and I would tell them and we'd finish at about lunchtime after we did the training. At lunchtime, we'd finish and I'd say, now the rest of the day, work from this location. Get into all your programs. Make sure you can access everything from our computer. Because the first time I see you shouldn't be when the disaster's happening. And that's where that came from. So too many firsts. You never want too many first Now, let me tell you this. If you want a month of first you can easily do that. The first time I ever packed my bug out bag, the first time I ever put the bugout bag on my back, The first time I ever started a fire with a magnesium fire starter, the first do you understand, the first time I ever drew my weapon and fired two shots. Rapid fire, drawn fire. That's the way we were trained, drawn fire. And you fire two shots, you never fired just one. It's draw bang bang, draw bang bang, because one shot can be construed as premeditated. I know, I know. You never shoot and look and see if your shot was effective. Okay, And going to the secret Service. Holy crap, the only one that shot was the guy that was shot at in the chest. That man should be dead in the hail of gunfire and no one should have missed. When I went to the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Glencoe, Georgia, Fleetech for two months, I took Basic Police Academy training because I was a Federal Protective Service officer. And for two months, every other day, for two hours every day, we went to the range. We had revolvers Smith and Wesson, three fifty seven revolvers, three fifty seven magnum revolvers, and for every every other day we fired, and we fired different ranges, different ways, different distances, low loading, you know, reloading. And the days that we didn't fire, we did martial arts, takedowns, apprehensions, cuffing techniques. That's what we did. And for the Secret Service, they did way more than we did. I went to Basic Police Academy training. I was a Federal Protective Service officer, so it was the you know, standard standard by the Lady LAP. I was top shooter though in my class. That was funny because three of us that we was in Anchorage, Alaska, we went to three different training academies because we were hired at different times and we were all three top shooters. Okay, when we came back, we used to we was to make things up on the firing range, to try and trip each other up to get better and better and better. But the Secret Service did way more firearms training. We didn't shoot at anything that was moving. Okay, ours were all stationary targets. Yeah, that guy was running, but you lead the runner, You lead them, which means you point in front of them before you pull the trigger. All of that guy's shots were behind the guy and man and he's the only one firing. Inconceivable. Inconceivable. But it just shows the level of training that's going on right now as opposed to the level of training that happened in nineteen eighty. Nineteen eighty, Holy cow, that was a long time ago. Anyway, I want to thank the Intrepid Commander for doing this, and he's putting a lot of my old shows up. You know what I get from the old shows? How wow? I mean, yeah, it's all good stuff. And I was really basic back then, really really basic. We have come so far on the Jones Homestead Jonstead, as future Dan calls it, the Jonstead Hey Patriot Powerer guys man news and analysis you cannot get anywhere else. Do you know what I heard on the Patriot Powerer was how I ran, can't store any oil and when the flow of oil stops, water groundwater seeps in and it takes a long while to get things back to normal. And I heard it today on the actual news. So the Patriot Power our guys had this scoop before regular mainstream news media even conceived what was going on. And Trump Trump is awesome today because we had a half day. All I did was show Trump signing that executive order to put one thousand dollars matching a one thousand dollars in a retirement account to low income. Now think about this, low income. Anybody eighteen years old that has just graduated high school is low income. And I told all my students, when you turn eighteen, sign up for this, get it going, because you get one thousand dollars from the government. As long as you put a dollar in, they give you a dollar back, and it's your money when you retire. I mean, who wouldn't sign up for that? And I don't know too many high school graduates that are middle income. I don't know. I don't know of any. I mean, there probably are some out there, but everybody's working at sheets or you know, the grocery store. They're doing stocking shelves. They are low income. So why not sign up for it? And you keep getting that thousand dollars for every year you are a low income person for thirty five years, so that's thirty five thousand dollars, just saying, so anybody within the sound of my voice, this is when I'm teaching my kids, my kids, my students, and my daughter who's eighteen. As soon as this comes out, we're signing up for it so she has a retirement account. Anyway, I just wanted to come on here and say thanks to the intrepid commander. You know, I just get on here, do my best. It's like any job I've ever had. I just go into it, do the best I can, and that's all anybody you can ask, right, And that's what I did for the past three years at the high school. And yesterday the ninth grade actually figured out that I was not coming back because they have a different history teacher next year, and they said, why is your name listed? And I told them that I wasn't coming back, and I said, one thing I know for sure is that I will miss you guys, more than you will ever miss me. Because do you remember who your ninth grade high school history teacher was? I don't. I do remember, mister Schmeltzer. You know how you have all that you have? That one teacher? He was English. He let me do a book report on Harry Houdini while I was tied up in a chair by the students and escaping from the chair at the same time. So I used techniques that I learned from Harry Houdini to escape from the chair. They tied me up and I gave the book report while I was escaping, and mister Smeltzer said, Jones, I don't know what you're gonna do when you get older, but I'm sure I'm gonna hear about you. And I just hope it's not that you climbed up in a tower and started shooting people, because that was the time the Texas Tower terror. If you google it, you'll we'll know what I mean. That was the time that was all going on. I was in high school then, Oh gosh. Anyway, I hope I taught those kids, something not only about history but about life anyway, PB and family. I just thought i'd come on here since I had a half a day, and I want you to take care and prep on
