Re: Attack helicopters are only harming Americans [Letter, Village News, 7/23/2015]

I hesitated addressing Mr. Campbell's opinion of what he referred to as "noise pollution" but, now that another has expressed their opinion agreeing with his "intelligent comments", I feel it would be a disservice to our military to let it go unanswered.

The noise pollution you both referred to is what I and so many others call "the sound of freedom."

Camp Pendleton, first established as a training facility for the military in 1942 during WWII, became a permanent installation in 1944 covering over 125,000 acres. You could say that they were here first, but the point is this facility trains the very members of the military that protect you complainers.

Mr. Campbell made some statements that were totally out of left field but the one he did not address is the fact that regardless what our liberal administration and media calls it, we are at war on several fronts and the situation may only get worse before it gets better.

Those against preparing our military for future conflicts are a disgrace and need to accept a little sound of freedom once in awhile and wave to our heroes every one and say a little prayer for their safety.

You should both be ashamed of yourselves for putting your comfort ahead of America’s safety.

You may guessed, I am a patriot, a former Marine; I fly an American flag every day, and do charitable work on Pendleton often and I believe in “God Bless America “ and the tooth fairy!
