Christmas Wish Part 2
I want to make something perfectly clear. I am not going to rehash a lot of this. However, I am going to say my side to this story to my family. I mentioned in 1988, that I went into the navy. I am not going to give anymore but the necessary information about this story.
I just graduated at Central High School in Park Hills, Mo/Flat River, Mo. I then went to RTC/NTC San Diego in San Diego California. I was assigned to have 10 weeks in boot camp. I had Petty Officers yelling at me and the other recruits at the top of their voices because this is what happens in the Military. On week 4, we were to get letters from our family. I got a letter from my step-mother.
I want to make this clear that when a recruit is going through orientation/ boot camp. They are not allowed to visit anyone, and you need to focus on your training. You job in the military is how to be a good soldier. You must learn how to march, shoot a gun, and live the military life. The letter than I got was not about supporting my training. The letter was that my soon to be wife was messing around on me and how they are watching her. It said, “I saw that girl with some boy who lives down the street.”
Let’s be honest here. Why would she be watching my soon to be wife? You are going to tell me that you are constantly driving up and down her house just to spy on her while I am gone? Do you even know on how upset that I got from the letter? Do you even know on the level of mental anguish that she caused? The reason why she got the level was because everyone and this does include the Petty Officer clearly seen that I was upset. Do you even know to whom sent the letter back to her? The letter did not come from a recruit.
The response letter came from Petty Officer Chavez and Petty Officer Cortez. No, it was not from a soldier and they were making it very clear that this was very upsetting me. They got the letter out of the locker during an inspection. I did not ask them to do it. They did it out of their free will because they cared about the recruits.
Many of you who served in the military knows that boot camp is not a simple little procedure. For ten weeks you are put through a physical and mental procedure to adapt to military life. The Petty Officer job is to prepare you for what happens after you graduate. If you do not cut the mustard in your performance, then you will get kicked out and never allowed to get back in. This is not like any other job, and I want to make this clear. I did not want to go into the military, and I wanted to wait a few years to join.
Let’s get back to the letter and make this perfectly clear. What was she saying? Let me make this also clear on where my uncle lived.
I have provided in this an image from Google Earth. It provides the area in which my wife lived. Keep also in mind, my dad lived almost 10 miles away from them. My uncle lived a half mile from my wife right off of Main Street in Esther. What was known back then as Lincoln Street was a quarter of a mile away. To get to where her home was you would have had to drive a quarter of a mile away to get there. This did not make any lick of sense to me.
The boy in her letter was a boy that she knew for 30 years and she was best friends with Billy Club (died in 2012) and there was not an affair going on. Her parents allowed their kid to go visit people.
The boy that they also saw while I was in the military was a woman. The other person was my wife’s best friend since she was a little girl. My wife visited the person because she had Parkinson’s disease. The person could not go out of the house much because she could hardly walk. Yet, she was sending me a letter on something she had no business doing? Do you even know how wrong this was? They were stalking her while I was in the military and deciding to whom I should marry and not marry.
Do I need to go a bit further on this abuse? Do I even want to make clear on when we visited the house when my wife had her baby? My wife is not a normal person but I love her to death. Even today, I love her like no other. Why? I love her odd personality. Yes, she does seem to be flirting with you but she is just being outgoing on her personality to get to know you. That is not trying to sleep with you. My wife was not trying to get her body on my dad.
My wife did not try to have an affair with my dad. My wife was just trying to talk to him and get to know him. He interpreted that he was trying to sleep with him. No, it was that he was trying to be friends with the man. She did not know how to act and behave around other people. They could of simply told her that this is not acceptable and try to get to know him in a different way. Instead, they tried to stick her in a mental hospital. There were other avenues that they could of tried to do rather than putting her away because they did not understand or even talked out their intentions. That is the exact reason why I made my decision.
She was raised in a very abusive home. Her brother would beat the shit out of her with Tae Kwon Do. My wife did not want to get into martial arts. She wanted to get into Arts and Crafts but her own father never wanted a girl. There was also sexual abuse going on in the home. My wife did not know what was right and wrong because her parents did not teach her on how to behave around other people.
I cared a hell of a lot to get her out of that relationship. My wife loved her parents in more than one way but my wife wanted to get away from her abusive brother in the home. That is why I decided to married her. We remained married for over 30 years. Why? I love my wife. Yet, during this time, they were demanding that I get a divorce because my wife did have an affair on me in Springfield Missouri. I told her at the time that I was going to give her another chance.
My parents did not like my decision. They wanted to force me out of the marriage that they never approved of. I wanted them to show respect on my decisions. Yet, you hold a grudge against her because of stuff you did not know was going on.
No, you listen to side against a woman that you do not know about, and you hold 30-year-old grudges with someone you do not know. You sit there and tell me to say nothing, and this is a private matter. It is not going to be private when you support mental abuse. I stated in my video to judge not lest ye shall be judged also. Why? There are always two sides to every story.
The abuse that happens was not from me. The abuse going on was another person. That abuse was mental abuse by my step-mom who was sending me letter while I was in bootcamp and decided to sabotage my marriage in every way, shape or form. The abuse is coming from you because you were listening to the bullshit stories about my wife and not one time asking my side of the story. The bullshit abuse is accusing my wife and trying to sleep with my dad when my wife was just trying to get to know the man a bit more.
You people have never tried to ask what was going on. Instead, you kick me out of family because you did not approve to whom I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. Hell, you even lied on what really happened. Who is to say that she did not do it to get me to divorce my wife? You know, what happened to my kid? If you seen the history of the above then it is does cast doubt towards her when it comes down to spying on her while I was in the military. Yes, I want to put this all aside and put this in the past. However, as I said in video and on YouTube. I have a hell of a lot to say and now that you know the real truth then maybe and just maybe you can find out to whom is my wife. The very person you judged for 30 years.
I do not know to whom did what when you told my kid that I abused her. I have no idea on how it happened but this could of simply been another ploy by my step-mom to convince me to divorce someone that she did not approve of. The point is that she had no business spying on my wife. She had no right to stick someone in a mental hospital and she had no right to force me to divorce someone that she did not approve of. I want to make this abundantly clear on all of the bullshit of being judge for 30 years.
I do want to spend Christmas with you and be a family. I want to make clear on the real truth and why I have a beef with you. That is why I am airing this on a public forum so that this bullshit never repeats itself. All I ask is respect on my decisions and this is my life. I still love you and I am not saying this to shame your mother. I am saying that what she did at that time was totally wrong.
I want you guys to come here to where I live but I also want to make clear on what the real truth is before you step foot in my home. I also wanted to make my daughter aware of my side of the coin so she knows what really happened.
