Happy Veterans Day

A person who advocates and practices preparedness one. Ready for any event that will disrupt their daily routine we are the proper broadcasting network. Hello everyone out there in internet radio land. This is Dave Jones, the NBC guy, coming to you on this Veterans Day 2026. Happy Veterans Day, everyone. Oh my gosh. Yep. Happy Veterans Day. If you're a veteran, get out there and get your discounts and do that thing and get thanked for your service. I'm I wear this hat that says Retired Army, and I get people saying, thank you for your service all the. Time, and I appreciate it. I really do. Know that veterans don't think it's any big deal. They are happy to serve, or they wouldn't have done it. I mean, since 1975... The United States has had an all-volunteer military force, and 5.5% of the population, a very small amount of people, can call themselves veterans. So the other 95% have never been in. So there you go. If you want to talk about the The elite. The elite. And that's mainly because our military is drawn down so much. I mean, if you count everything up, the reserves and the National Guard and all of that, only 2.1 million people in the United States are military. So.... That is less than 1% of the population of the United States. Is protecting the rest. Those are the veterans that are standing on the front line, are executing the president's orders right now. So that's how small a population this is. And I'm. Not exactly sure where I was going with this, but I just thought I'd, I'd give you the figures and the numbers. And all that kind of stuff. Um, yeah. Happy Veterans Day to all the veterans out there and all the listeners that are veterans. I know there's a lot of you out there. And, uh, I got an email from a, from a listener just yesterday. Let me see if I can pull it up. Um, you know who you are. Anyway, if anybody wants to email me, NBC guy at proton mail.com NBC guy at proton mail.com. I'm working on a, a YouTube show, um, emergency communications. Yep. What we do here at the Jones stead, we have a layered approach to our communication needs and, uh, You have to check that out. Prepping up with the Joneses. So if you want more of the NBC guy, a lot of it is scripted, okay? You got to stay within the guardrails, and I can't veer off of the reservation at all. And I'm trying to build something here on YouTube. I said to Maria, I'm not doing it for the money. And she says, well, then why are you doing it at all? Which is a good point. It's a good point. Um, I don't know. I'm trying to, trying to get something out there. I think, you know, stability watch, it's, it's not doing too good. Although the AI, which I think is a suck up, uh, is saying I'm doing good. Let me see how many I got. I got 72 subscribers and the views for my last stability watch is 13. Sounds pretty dismal. But anyway, 13. I got three likes, two comments. Hey, someone else commented. So that's new. Stability Watch is a weekly show that I put out. And I look back at the week and see if things are getting worse or getting better. And I'm pretty sure everybody knows whether they're getting worse or getting better. But we look at specific things, you know, financial and war, the war footing. So there you go. A lot of stuff going on in Romania. Man, a lot of stuff. Drone incursions happen so regularly I don't know what the plan is going forward with that Ukraine war are they trying they the people that fund the war are they trying to change things I don't know I don't know what the outcome is But if you like hearing the NBC guys approach, there you go. Prepping up with the Joneses. And this communication thing, if I get some time today, I'll record it and edit it and post it today. I've been working on a. History draw for the catalog, the, what is it? Black Friday entertainment. PBN catalog. So I got that out to James. PBN listeners are going to get the best deal on that game of anybody. And it's like. Maybe four weeks from being able to be ordered. So I'm taking names. I'm checking names. making a list, checking it twice. And you can add your name to the list so when the game is finally in production, you can be one of the first. Ones to get it. So there you go. But happy Veterans Day, everyone. Some people, everybody sacrificed some, and some people sacrificed all. And that's about all I'll say about Veterans Day. But thank you for your service. Take care and prep on.
