SUBMITTED BY: Dave Stopher

Staff Sergeant Richard Stopher,
United States Marine Corps, End of Watch August 22, 2018.

Richard Dale Stopher entered service December 30, 1959. After Boot Camp in San Diego, California, he began his schooling to become an Interpreter and Translator at The Presidio in Monterrey, Ca.  

Richard served in the 5th Marines proudly, until his language skills in Mandarin  and Cantonese were needed in the blossoming war in Vietnam.   

Richard deployed on the 1st IT&T Interrogation & Translation detachment in 1964 to enter the war with 12 other Marines.  He served his nation well for 16 months in Vietnam until his tour ended in late 1965.  He served again as a Marine Drill instructor in San Diego,  before his eventual Honorable Discharge in 1967. 

Richard is among the 300,000 Vietnam Veterans that survived the actual war in Vietnam, but have since succumbed to the effects of Agent Orange exposure.  Richard passed quietly at home August 18th, 2018, survived by his wife Evelyn, Daughter Rebecca, and son David.

He was laid to rest at Jefferson Barracks Military Cemetery with his fellow Brothers in Arms, awaiting the day that his wife will be interred with him.

WWII commemoration event “We’ll Meet Again” in honor of the 80th anniversary of the end of the war (V-J Day). We’ll be celebrating our WWII veterans—five of whom are expected to attend.  The evening will feature an all-American fried chicken dinner from Porter’s Chicken, a fascinating talk by WWII expert Dr. George Despotis including introductions and stories about our WWII vests in attendance, and a lively 1940s-style musical tribute. Proceeds will support St. Louis Honor Flight, with additional funds raised through a raffle and silent auction benefiting the Gateway WWII Museum Foundation, founded and directed by Dr. Despotis. He was also instrumental in creating the WWII memorial in Sunset Hills

MonumentalMedia Malpractice: CBS Deceptively Edits Sec. Kristi Noem Interview

By Ward Clark  | 6:32 PM on August 31, 2025

Sometimes, the legacy media's bias is so open, so shameless, that it's jaw-dropping. It's been this way since the Nixon years, when we watched on cumbersome tube televisions (as the youngest, I was always the kid who had to get up and change the channel) as the news programs took an almost gleeful tone at President Nixon's troubles. The rise of the internet just made matters worse; while we got some balance with the rise of the alternative media, like this site, the legacy media abandoned any pretext of objectivity.

Petty Officer George “Curt” Davison (USN) and Cpl Tom Lacey

Cpl Tom Lacey
Tom grew up on Wheaton, IL and enlisted into the Army on July 15, 1943.  After completing Basic at Camp Fannin, Tom volunteered and completed Radio School (FM SCR 300s) at Camp Maxey and was then assigned Company C, 99th Infantry Division.  After arriving in Liverpool Oct 1944, Tom was deployed to the ETO 3 weeks later and was trucked to the Siegfried line near Krinkelt and then battled in the Hurtgen Forest Campaign.   On Dec 16, 1944, Tom was awoken to heavy barrage at the start of the Battle of the Bulge.  The 99th defensive positions were overrun by several German companies after a rolling barrage.  While Tom was engaged in several small arms skirmishes, air to air combat raged overhead.   Tom lived through relentless artillery barrages from both the enemy and US 105s and helped evacuate one of his buddie’s (Red Netter) who had been hit.  The 99th withdrew to an advantageous strategic position on the Elsenborn Ridge.  Tom spent the next 3-4 days along with Sgt Baker (C Co) within foxholes on this infamous ridge, defending their position from the onslaught of German forces. The 99th assisted with a counterattack led by Shermans in the 9th Armored. Tom and his comrades in the 99th were the 1st to cross the Rhine at the bridge at Remagen in March 1944 despite being shelled by devastating 88 mm artillery fire.   Tom was discharged at Ft Lewis on Feb 2, 1946. Tom leaves us with the following pearls:  There is little correlation between rank and leadership, basic training is effective, the GI was not only a good soldier, but a good innovator, medics were brave, well-trained and effective, the Red Ball Express was instrumental in US victory, never hate your enemy, everyone has something good to offer to the world, you never know where the next hero will come from and pray daily to your guardian angel.

Petty Officer George “Curt” Davison (USN)
PO Davison (99 years old) served as an Electrician’s Mate on the Destroyer Escort U.S.S. Rudderow that travelled to nearly 30 locations in the Pacific Theatre of Operations from 1943 to 1946.  The USS Rudderow participated in submarine hunter-killer patrols, escort of resupply and troop reinforcement convoys and oversaw landings of landing crafts. Curt observed the suicide attacks on US ships by enemy pilots and the impact of a severe typhoon on his ship to the extent that the deck was under water.  Curt’s ship also carried some of the soldiers who had survived the Battaan Death March after their release from prison camps.  Curt was honorably discharged from the Navy in the summer of 1946.  Curt believes that being in the Navy was an adventure and enabled him to see many places and become good friends with many sailors throughout the US.  Curt recommends that no matter what your age, that you should stay active as he has been awarded thousands of medals and holds several state, five national and one world record as a Senior Olympian.
