The Veteran community is at a loss with the events unfolding but how come one person is praised a hero & the other isn't being mentioned? Say it with your chest. THE FACTS! ALL OF THEM! 41 year old Zachary Scalf took the life of 28 year old Madalyn Coulter then took his own. This is not a 22 a day issue, this is DV and mental illness issue. If you are struggling, get some help, put your guns away, and talk things through. Zachary's behavior and actions are inexcusable. The lack of accountability is baffling. Janae, Bridget and I sit down and hash this story out because a lot of folks are too afraid to speak up about this... WHY IS THAT? HOW? - - - - - To my male counterparts, don't turn a blind eye to abuse/exploitation of our female Veterans in order to preserve the “brotherhood”. The signs were there.

Welcome! Resilient and Rowdy is honored to have SSG Sandy Marquis, an immigrant and patriot currently serving in the United States Army. After arriving in Fort Hood, SSG Sandy Marquis found out how manipulative uniformed personnel can be and the lies used against SSG Marquis to threaten her from speaking out. The criminal justice system and Child Protective Services were used against her in retaliation. This toxic behavior is embedded deeply into our military and we learn how deep it goes in order to silence victims. This interview is set to inform folks how corrupt bureaucracies and instituations can be in order to fulfill someone's sick agenda and intentions. As well as acknowledging there is a "good ol' boy" system everywhere you go, a code of silence, and connections hidden in plain sight to keep crimes and injustices from seeing the light of day. If you are interested in speaking with Sandy, you may reach her at melislove2008@gmail.com SSG Sandy Marquis is searching for a high profile lawyer to help her case, any guidance is appreciated.
