Soldier serves country, pays debt to U.S.Written by U.S. Army Sgt. Scott Davis, Regional Command-East Public Affairs
However, nothing can make U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Gabriel Villalobos, Company B, Headquarters and Headquarters Battalion, 101st Airborne Division, question his service to his country. All that matters to him is he has been given the chance to give back to a country that has given him and his family so much. “I knew that when I grew up, I was going to be an American Soldier,” Villalobos said. “I knew that if a country was willing to aid my pregnant mother when she illegally entered the United States to have me, then I was obligated to serve.” ![]() U.S. Army Staff Sgt.

Is a Sense of Entitlement the Root of Evil in Our Society?Has it occurred to you that we are seeing more and more people who feel that whatever they want to do, whenever they want to do it, and to whomever they want to do it, is the way to go? ![]() They have their thirty pieces of silver Whether it is some two-bit politician in Podunk who has an innocent hard-working person removed from her job for what he perceives is his right because he has the power, or a fat-cat CEO who has hundreds of people laid off while he collects multi-million dollar–or even billion dollar–perks with no qualms whatsoever, we see evil appearing to rule the day. It could be a drug addict who thinks it’s okay to rob an elderly person to get money for a fix. It could be the director of a nursing home who allows aging bedridden patients to be neglected to increase profits. Let’s face it. We have an abundance of evil-acting citizens in our midst.
