Letter to the City of Madison Mayor: William S. Middleton Memorial Hospital individually unemployable discharged patients face HUD-VASH Gentrification with relocation

On By Bob Cobb Freelance Ink LLC Word Press AdministratorLeave a comment

Disabled veterans in the Dane County area cannot compete with landlords who require a “three-times” rent agreement also known as “gentrification.” When totally and permanently veterans listed as “individually unemployable” seek work opportunities, those who view military service as racist, predominantly those who preach critical race theory in management and human resources, run the veteran off the job.

The problem disabled veterans face is the inability to keep up with gentrification who become HUD-VASH statistics. What can be done?


Why should a disabled veteran who could afford their apartment who no longer be required to live amongst crack dealers, those who try to rewrite philosophy with “violent protest”, or worse yet graffiti the Wisconsin Veterans Museum?


Dane County, mainly in Madison, has an anti-veteran problem. I propose a voucher system that allows the disabled veteran a cap and a requirement of 20 percent HUD-VASH tenancy who then will open opportunities for homeless veterans who also qualify for more opportunities other than waitlists.


Or better yet, establish a recruiting model that transitions disabled veterans through remote proctored instruction, which will qualify the individual with a noncredit option, then utilize the research for receiving HUD-VASH grants that could potentially provide the landlord or academic institution with economic stimulus. I suggest renovating the downtown Madison College campus into a HUD-VASH readjustment and rehabilitation transition center allowing potential candidates access to Madison College classes on-site.


The operation could raise $2.5 million for renovation capital, then accept tenants on a first-come educational eligibility opportunity to sell and provide data regarding the needs of those afflicted. Once a pilot fully matures the building’s depreciation, then the pilot can renovate unused buildings for harnessing creativity with those who manage trauma-informed symptoms like LightFIghter Syndrome®.

By focusing on the needs of disabled veterans who are individually unemployable, a corporate vendor could potentially study, through focus groups, why disabled veterans struggle in society and how to implement welcoming environments, which could potentially stimulate the veteran hiring sector, provide administrative short-term jobs and track outcomes with tenant qualitative analysis.

By focusing on the housing needs of those who suffered injuries in service, the workplace can grow into a place where lost time and shift coverage could easily be filled on a last-minute basis as a part of a rent-free living experience.

By having unemployable veteran work for rent voucher as a rent offset, the Dane County rental community could potentially resolve the ongoing issue with veteran homelessness by reconnecting individuals with their learning minds first in a noncredit capacity, then grow into a creative intelligence mindset performing small tasks and duties that usually comprise $18-$20 per hour.

By divesting in vouchers, a business could own an apartment complex, decrease staff, gain access to block grants and run a lean operation with disabled veteran independent interns who at least receive at the minimum pride in workmanship. The solution is simple. Hire individually unemployable veteran quid pro quo for rent and then watch the workplace thrive in their absence.

No veteran is hopeless and could have an opportunity to take a troublemaker angry at the world and convert them into becoming employable again.

Letter to the Vice President for public comment at Madison College Student Senate regarding ‘Stolen Valor’ and the ‘QueerMongering’ of disabled veterans in Madison, Wis.

Dear Vice President J.D. Vance:

I seek your comment for my role as the Vice President of Legislative Affairs at Madison Area Technical College and the opportunity to inspect the Dept. of Veterans Affairs’ Veterans Integration Academic Leadership Program, “VITAL” for short.

Madison College Clarion Stolen Valor Article

I am a student veteran who graduated with an undergraduate through the Wisconsin G.I. Bill and am calling out Stolen Valor and QueerMongering® of those who identify as disabled student veterans enrolled at Madison College.

• Please make time during your busy schedule to read the article I wrote on a critical race theory military service hating campus. I do not feel safe attending Madison College and request and invitation to come share a public comment via Zoom and request Pres. Donald J. Trump send DOGE to the University of Wisconsin-Madison and cut their veteran funding.

• Veterans deserve free college as a reparation method for the QueerMongering we continuously experience when exercising our G.I. education benefits.

• This is a call to action and need your help enforcing boundaries with faculty who use critical theory as an instruction device for brainwashing learners into seeing military service as racist.

I also invite you to comment about our institutions’ denial of flying the POW MIA flag and ask the Trump Administration to enact a QueerMongering awarness enforcement amongst all veterans who exercise their G.I. Benefits as your past PREVENTS representative at Madison College.

Respectfully,

Bradley J. Burt

Madison College SCICOMM 256 Museum Exhibit Writing Sample: Critiquing the science of the Korean War at the Wisconsin Veterans Museum

On By Bob Cobb Freelance Ink LLC Word Press AdministratorLeave a comment

Critiquing the science of the Korean War at the Wisconsin Veterans Museum
Bradley Burt, Clarion business director

For the “Critiquing Science on Display Assignment,” I visited the Korean War display at the Wisconsin Veterans Museum seeking the scientific bits from an anthropological perspective of war and military service. The critique perspective critically examined accuracy and the dialogical connect regarding the modeling of exhibit arrangements with artifacts and displays.


Overview of critiqued materials on the basis of class instruction material

Exhibits are forms of visual publication. The critical appraisal of the Korean War exhibit analyzed the collaboration of branches of service and overall impression as an exhibit, which prepared notes according critique writing handouts from this week’s online class. The experience was rewarding and have a new appreciation when visiting monuments and war exhibits as a blogger and journalism etiquette columnist. Etiquette is hardly a word to describe the Korean War from an anthropological perspective. “Brutal” and “barbaric” are the terms that come to mind when analyzing war. For the project, the subjective mindset was left in my backpack. Visitors must leave backpacks behind at the front desk prior to entrance to the museum.

War is flux: The science of colonization
Over the course of several years attending both Madison College and the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, I began meeting with the curator of the Wisconsin Veterans Museum in 2019 for the Practicum 2 course.

Writing about historically significant items brings pleasure and joy. Using the ethnographic survey approach, I learned in sociology, helped me remove prejudice and report according to the checklist we were provided in class this week.
The exhibits on display at the Wisconsin Veterans Museum share one thing in common: each is a relic from history. From a critical analysis, a display must be written either as Chicago, Associated Press or American Psychological Association styles.

From a historically accurate perspective, each writing style represents either a social science, a timestamp or a reflection. The Korean War exhibit has an anthropological survey style offering onlookers narratives, timelines and historically accurate information. The museum, from an overview vantage point, took the visitor through history over the course of American war history eras.

Social science critical view analysis
Archaeology and anthropology work in unison. The archaeologist collects the artifacts, and the anthropologist registers them. The overview is the anthropological survey. I learned, in the Anthropology: Myth, Magic and Religion course, the survey starts when an anthropologist marks the surveyed area with rope, tape and flags until the anthropologist decides the survey is done.

Museums use anthropologists writeups for displaying items, which use APA style. Collaboratively, when sifting through the ashes of war, forensic analysis is required for identifying charred remains and badly blown-up items, which is a forensic pathologist’s job. There are many vantage points that collaborate amongst many forms of science. The Wisconsin Veterans Museum critique examined the writing styles, the relics, items retrieved and returned from the combat zone and the evolution of weaponry that the museum displays.


Anthropologist Harvey Whitehouse and Philosopher Dr. John Rawls are the two social scientists who’ve made a lasting impression on America with ethical approaches to war correspondence publication, whom are the professionals I use for analyzing rhetoric and dialogue. For military dress inspection, I use my Cornell West Point note taking style for comparing exhibit notes.


Through the eyes of both interactive investigative journalist and 10th Mountain Division artillery dress inspection training, the evaluation of military displays took into consideration the textual communication the curator used. On a side note, in my opinion, I would hope a veteran museum would take military protocol into consideration and did not see the writeups written the same.


The goal for the exhibit critique sought writing a collaboration between reader and writer regarding the value of displaying war material ethically. Unless the reader served in the military, the understanding of what goes on in the military cannot be taken into consideration as museums cater to all. Scratch that off the list for now.


In cinema, oftentimes military uniforms are out of order only because Hollywood is required to do so. Exhibits are not cinema. When visiting Washington, D.C. and witness narrated videos instead of screen-printed write ups like witnessed at the Wisconsin Veterans Museum, I get irritated because narrated videos are subjective on the bias of the storyteller telling the visitor what they believe is most important. Kudos to the curator for not taking this approach.

The views shared ethnographically survey exhibits and their value as relics of war historically narrating the process of colonization starting from the macro view of the Korean War invasion, which narrated a micro view of the specific event, then examined write ups and narratives on the premise of the outcome of the Korean War police action from a scientific approach to the comparison and analysis of reporting styles.


The art of war: The Korean War crucible as an exhibit
Whitehouse examines COVID in contrast to war. Whitehouse believes conflict narrates the crucible of society through “identity fusion,” which he discusses regarding the Taliban’s winning in Afghanistan found on his press page. From an overview examination of war, an exhibit shares how the crucible of resolving conflict sculpts and shapes nations. The exhibit critique examines relics and critically analyzes the construction of the exhibit on a macro-view basis.

The Wisconsin Veterans Museum specializes exclusively in military history. From a historical vantage point, displays provided mannequins, glass cases, relics, write ups, platforms and staging, along with screen printed back drops sharing the crucible and perspective of war. The level of cleanliness, from a combat and field veteran’s point of view, was amazing. Relics from war are typically worn out or badly damaged. The Wisconsin Veterans Museum did a superb job cleaning and displaying items for all to view. The Korean War began in the ‘50s, which would mean the items on display have aged for over 70 years.

Using typography and publication as an art exhibit
Rawls’ believes “the Doctrine of Double Effect” instructs publishers to consider a tolerance with viewers and provide the viewer with the right to decide the good or bad end. If the publisher decides to write subjectively then do so with the caveat the end must not devalue the mean. War is the mean. The curator provided mostly tangible items and photographs rather than narration. Rawls’ insists the viewer, for publication ethics, receive the “Veil of Ignorance” respect.


Very simply stated, the exhibit critique determines whether or not the curator narrated items objectively with a third-person narrative or subjectively with first-person. The curator built the Korean War exhibit formally and with a professional appearance. The write ups were built in Chicago style and did not witness any grammatical flaws. The micro-view critique, which took up close and personal considerations based on Rawls’ instructions, critically analyzed items by seeking details regarding the items presented without opinion. Only fact and how the words contrast what the exhibit displays.

The exhibit’s brevity
Items examined and critiqued considered information from the “Exhibit Writing Tips” handout. The curator’s use of brevity was the focus of critiquing. The critique of each exhibit in chronological order as listed in the handout starting with “Credit Lines” and concluding with “Talkback Text.” Aside from views, the writeups and narratives provide contrast and details as a scientific communication exchange with visitors. Brevity is the art of narration, which is an Oxford term for being brief. The viewer should walk away feeling informed and not persuaded. The curator did a great job.


Brevity meets the minimum requirement of succinctness, and the write ups felt engaging, which delivered informative details. The research provided by the curator’s oversight shared mindful and helpful information from the vantage point of Rawls’ ethical inspection of published materials.
The material on display allows photographers to take pictures without flash, which is made clear upon entering the gallery. Photography use is a form of publication and must not alter items photographed. Viewers will think critically because the curator’s writeups are objectively telling the story of the Korean War from quotes and anecdotes along with conservative typography.

The “Structuring Exhibit Text” Critique
The micro-view examined all 12 points regarding instructions for structuring text for exhibits from the handout students received as a part of instruction. The handout was used for notetaking and laid aside all prejudice with personal experiences from deployment as a veteran. The writing was difficult to read from afar and had to get up close for reading purposes.


• Titles and headlines: The use of caps does not conform to Associated Press style.
• Intro to text: Italics were not necessarily a writing style only used as an eye catcher.
• Primary or section text: Commas were appropriately used.
• Secondary text or subtext: Paragraphed details made for reading difficulty.
• Sidebars: None
• Object labels: Exhibit did not make clear what items were.
• Image captions: The photography narrative was appropriate and concise.
• Quotes: Quoted field commander and his opinion. Use of ellipses felt clunky. Quotes were not written in Associated Press style and appeared abstract.
• Credit lines: Gen. Douglas MacArthur was not attributed properly in Associated Press style.
• Talkback labels: Made anecdotal references regarding what took place during the war.
• Wayfinding signage: Was not apparent or obvious to the viewer.
• Additional text: Signage did not follow a specific style. Had a hard time making out what signage said from afar, which could cause longer than normal exhibit loitering times.


From the viewer’s vantage point, the exhibit felt alive and detailed historical events well. From a journalist viewpoint, the writeups appeared as amateur or novice. The exhibit artifacts and photographs captured history well but the empty space in “The See-Saw War” writeup had dead space where another picture should have gone or even a map of the terrain would have been helpful. The artifacts felt engaging, and the arrangement of items was positioned professionally for the viewer to connect with other displayed items. Overall, the captions were appropriate lengths and liked the monochrome photographs taken from the war.

The Wisconsin Veterans Museum could use photo slideshows, who noted upon entry, “we have only eight percent of our items displayed from our vault.” Well, that’s great and all but with the invention of interactive media, a photo slideshow could help tell the story with flow codes and cross dissolved Ken Burns Effect storytelling styles through television screens that would allow for a broader display of artifacts through the use of Adobe software. A follow-up interview with the curator has been scheduled and are welcome to listen to exhibit critiques.


The future of interactive storytelling: Convergent media collaboration with the curator
The Korean War display did not mention the role of the Wisconsin Air National Guard, which played a pivoting role with the outcome of the war. After conducting research in college, I later learned the Wisconsin Air National Guard leads the Air Force in strategic decision making for bomber squadrons and will be meeting with the curator to discuss building stories around the interactive storytelling model. Convergent media isn’t just for the news and the press. Museums can take full advantage of the style too.

The upcoming final paper analyzes the work of the University of Wisconsin Missing-in-action Recovery and Identification Project. The museum offered to sit down and discuss a possible photo slideshow regarding the Wisconsin Air National Guard and the last flight of 1st Lt. Jerome A. Volk, whose family is friends with the project’s director. Legislatively, the project has the opportunity to locate three Wisconsin MIAs if the State of Wisconsin approves upcoming bill, Senate Bill 8, which would allocate $360,000 to the University of Wisconsin-Madison Biotechnology Center and help locate Volk as one of the missing pilots. The curator likes the idea of building a legislative exhibit and will be volunteering at the museum in service to the POW MIA families of Wisconsin who do not have an exhibit. The next visit seeks collaborating with the curator to include MIAs with war exhibits.

Outpost 422 develops STEMRadio through Clarion Radio simulating the role of John Q. Battlefield attending Madison College

On By Bob Cobb Freelance Ink LLC Word Press AdministratorLeave a comment

What happens when you as a student veteran challenge a grade with a Dean at Madison College? You end up a statistic like John Q. Battlefield.

John Q. Battlefield reflects the 360-degree profile of student veterans when an adversarial instructor from the University of Wisconsin-Madison alum and full-time faculty at Madison College chases nontraditional class G.I. Benefit recipients off campus believing the Badger hype not knowing UW Madison possess a 42.9 percent student veteran success undergraduate rate.

We must reform how college institutions perceive us by publishing through pseudonyms and paying forward information through Instagram, where the Time Down Range in the college classroom serves at Autumn Landmine Productions.

The pilot will launch soon and STEMRadio is the service Outpost 422 provides you. The variable shares the introspection of student veterans with readjustment and reintegration barriers. Through memoirs, time down range passes and keeps student veterans with traumatic brain injury in academic shape.

Time Down Range

Listening to Bolt Thrower during breakout sessions avails excellent argumentation fuel as a law student. The sounds of “Armageddon Bound” resemble the mind of the adversary. He is the Devil lurking through the manifestation of instructors from the University of Wisconsin-Madison at Madison College.

Since graduating from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater in 2023, the author developed artificial intelligence media convergence journalism in the field of gonzo as a patient and currently broadcasts a show called “Time Down Range with John Q. Battlefield: The Yahara Journal Submission” as form of STEMRadio at Madison College while attending the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Two days prior to the eight-year anniversary of the author’s “Alive Day.”

An alive day reflection recalls the day the veteran made the decision and call the Veterans Crisis Line, then tap out with employee assistance. Survivor guilt from Hurricane Gordon fuels the diary of John Q. Battlefield. Battlefield reported Battlefield needed accommodation. The instructor berated Battlefield and introduced Battlefield to a fellow Army veteran named Randy Red.

Battlefield and Red started up a show on Clarion Radio called, “The Rowdy Redlegs Club” representing United States Army Field Artillery service believing using the Wisconsin G.I. Bill won’t hurt.

Bob Cobb works as the general manager of broadcast monitoring show content. Collaboratively, three challenge a grade while serving as show hosts on the Clarion Radio team.

The HotSeat Table for Two operations manual shares how to navigate reporting a threatening instructor. Lawyers are adversarial in nature. No how to diffuse.

Tune in Fridays at www.clarionradio.com from 5-7p CST for the rest of the story and learn how.

CHATGPT BLENDED CONTENT DEMO: Understanding the Value of Time Down Range at Post Everlasting

On By Bob Cobb Freelance Ink LLC Word Press AdministratorLeave a comment

In Memorium

Artillery and military honors drive the heart and soul of all who enter Post Everlasting.

Those who serve recognize the families of the POW MIA and Gold Star Mothers pay forward the ultimate sacrifice as the United States military auxiliary driving force. Mothers and flowers symbolize military honors from the perspective of those who’ve paid the ultimate price as the vigil of the loss of a son or daughter.

On Memorial Day, the King of Battle sends caissons to Arlington National Cemetery. Mothers show up with flowers who walk through and relive the agony while howitzers bark like Doberman pinchers in the face of the intruder. The howitzer speaks the lost advocacy truth while march order commands travel across the halls of Val Halla signifying sacred warriors who stayed the course of war in defense of Americanism.

Artillery dates back to the Revolutionary War with a reputation of exercising and executing the executive orders of the United States military when answering the call of duty. The M119 howitzer perpetuates and inculcates sending hot lead down range in the name of Gen. George Washington’s Righteous Army, who declared artillery as the king on the battlefield.

Let’s take a trip down range with ChatGPT and let’s hear what artificial intelligence has to say.

The M119 Howitzer is a lightweight, towed artillery piece designed for use in a variety of military settings, including as part of military honors ceremonies.

It’s known for its portability and versatility, making it useful for both field artillery operations and ceremonial purposes.

The M119 fires 105mm shells and is capable of both direct and indirect fire.

For military honors, the M119 Howitzer could be employed in the firing of salute volleys during state funerals, memorial services, or other formal military observances.

These ceremonial salutes typically involve firing blanks, with the number of rounds often corresponding to specific military traditions—such as a 21-gun salute to honor distinguished individuals or heads of state.

The M119 is especially suitable for these types of events because of its mobility and the relatively lower crew requirements compared to heavier artillery pieces. Its use in military honors underscores its adaptability to both combat and ceremonial roles.

Memorial Day at Arlington National Cemetery is a significant event in the United States, dedicated to honoring the men and women who have died while serving in the U.S. military. One of the key features of this day is the military honors paid to fallen service members, and this includes the ceremonial use of cannons and other artillery pieces in various activities.

Here’s an overview of the events that take place at Arlington National Cemetery on Memorial Day, with a particular focus on the use of cannons:

  1. National Memorial Day Observance Ceremony

The most prominent event at Arlington on Memorial Day is the National Memorial Day Observance ceremony. It includes speeches by the President of the United States or other dignitaries, a moment of silence, and various honors for the fallen. The ceremony usually takes place at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, where the 21-gun salute is a central feature.

  1. 21-Gun Salute

The 21-gun salute is a traditional military honor that involves the firing of cannons or artillery pieces. This salute is often part of the Memorial Day ceremony at Arlington, paying tribute to those who have given their lives in service. The salute is typically fired in honor of the President of the United States or as a symbolic tribute to the fallen, in this case, the U.S. military personnel.

  • Firing Location: Cannons or howitzers are positioned at various places within the cemetery or at ceremonial locations, such as near the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
  • How it’s done: Military personnel load and fire artillery pieces, often M119 Howitzers or other types of field artillery, in a precise and coordinated manner. The blank rounds fired create the distinctive “bang” of the salute.
  1. The Changing of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

Although this event doesn’t directly involve cannons, it is an important military honor at the cemetery. The Changing of the Guard occurs every hour and involves a highly formal and respectful ceremony where a sentry changes at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. While not artillery-based, this event is a centerpiece of Memorial Day observances and symbolizes the nation’s respect for its fallen service members.

  1. Wreath Laying and Other Honors

In addition to the 21-gun salute, various military and veteran organizations lay wreaths at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and other parts of the cemetery. These honors may include a military band, rifle volleys, and occasionally the use of artillery pieces for ceremonial salutes. The specific use of cannons can vary by year and ceremony, but it often accompanies the wreath-laying to provide additional tribute.

  1. Other Military Salutes and Rites

In some cases, artillery pieces are used in other parts of the cemetery for specific rites, such as additional gun salutes during memorial services for high-ranking military officers or notable veterans. These ceremonies can involve multiple salutes, using artillery for symbolic tribute.

Memorial Day is the day for military appreciation starting with Field Artillery. The King of Battle speaks the name of Post Everlasting with each 21-gun salute. Legislatively, members of the Wisconsin Legislative body at the Committee on Rules refuse to pick up funding the POW MIA issue while members of veterans’ organizations remain vigilant on watch ensuring all veteran families who grieve on Memorial Day may do so with honor.

Losing someone who served with you is one thing. The pain is never ending. Without those who paid forward their sons and daughters, the pain is an experience only a mother can fully fathom when their children are lost for eternity. We grieve first before we honor. For grief drives the advocacy keeping the Memorial Day vigil lit.

I Will NOT Forget the POW MIA, Gold Star Mothers and their families. The burden is the weight of those who served and Memorial Day is a reminder of United States military field artillery service.

Between changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to the laying of wreaths. The King of Battle will always be.

Last known whereabouts of Wisconsin Air National Guard pilot search for positive identification continues at Outpost 422

On By Bob Cobb Freelance Ink LLC Word Press AdministratorLeave a comment

Lest we forget, one of the first items on his agenda when Pres. Donald J. Trump took office in his first term was his negotiation at the Singapore Summit in 2016 for returning boxes of remains from North Korea. The returned remains sit idle in Honolulu, Hawaii, waiting for positive identification, but due to sanctions and jurisdiction restrictions, the recovery of America’s lost is off limits requiring the issue take precedent, which is a touchy issue.

As of March 3, 2025, one of those who have not returned home is 1st Lt. Jerome A. Volk, and being granted access to his crash site, which is featured below. Due to restrictions by North Korea, a search and rescue could potentially spark another war. His crash site is North of the demilitarized zone while the family waits for the day a positive identification can bring closure.

The Volk family continues to advocate for his return and Outpost 422 has taken the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater document research mission to the VISN 12 Regional Dept. of Veterans Affairs Healthcare Network for launching an oratorical challenge to meet once per week synchronously for developing a call-to-action mission called “Speak Your Peace. Seek Their Truth.”

The group will reconvene at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee for the next phase of the journey. What we seek is the actual whereabouts of the returned remains from Korea and to start up a newsletter honoring the Volk family’s quest to bring him home. Collectively, student veterans can get the job done.

“Brad, this photo was taken on the day that the Air National Guard base was dedicated to Jerome A. Volk. My grandparents, Esther and Aloys Volk are accepting a memorial award on the day of the dedication in this photo.” Volk Family Advocate Jeri Volk Barry shared.

If you are visiting this website via the mobile campaign directive, thank you. The project got derailed for a bit and is now back on track. Let’s get down to brass tax why the return of Volk has become a complicated issue.

The greatest obstacle is bureaucracy. While the Dept of POW MIA Accounting Agency wastes federal funds on locating vampires listed as “J.B. 55,” Volk’s recovery continues.

What the woke media won’t tell you is that the POW MIA issue is ongoing and is extremely important with recent program cuts. The POW MIA families and repatriation is the duty of Americans to undergo to bring closure and model peace. Symbolically, the silence of the missing rings loudly, despite the fact the woke media does not see the POW MIA issue value, which is why the project and its mission of examining open record documents is paramount.

Locating and analyzing flight logs, duty rosters and small details like letters, collaboration over Google searches and keywords, making phone calls to Washington, etc. The project seeks all the help it can get.

If you are interested in joining the mission, would like to help develop the documentary and get active with the Outpost 422 brand to legislatively advocate for holding DPAA accountable, your volunteer efforts are welcome.

Simply send your information to our pressroom at leads111.proton.me and as an independent media research project, we can stand up to woke media and take back the POW MIA issue legacy as advocates.

As the brand develops the next phase of the oratorical rescue and recovery of archived documents, each contribution pays forward hope to bringing closure to POW MIA families. The project coverage connects two schools under one dual learner recovery experience for trimming tuition expense seeking connecting student veteran transfers from Madison College with a jumpstart oratorical program.

Soon, through the Madison College Digital Marketing Course, the Outpost 422 brand website will be getting rebranded to be an exhibit of the Volk recovery discovery. Each document is a contribution in good faith and each volunteer will make a difference as the next phase unfolds.

We cannot forget.  

Time Down Range with John Q. Battlefield DVR Disability Ableism Awareness Campaign

On By Bob Cobb Freelance Ink LLC Word Press AdministratorLeave a comment

WE ARE REPORTING REMOTELY IN UPPER MICHIGAN FOR A WISCONSIN DVR DOCUMENTARY PILOT

One of the gifts of being a contracted client of Wisconsin’s Division of Vocational Rehabilitation, (DVR) is the hostage taking experience being bound to becoming gainfully employable as a disabled veteran.

My DVR experience built this writing device to help overcome a newly recognized diagnosis of traumatic brain injury, with the help of Dept. of Veterans Affairs Speech Therapy, the road to writing well is long underway.

Writing is the best part about the contract, along with working with veterans who were “stuck” like the rest of us during our diary treatment sessions. We are taught how to make peace with alternative thoughts and use mindfulness for grounding frustration and emotion. We behave well when we are under pressure and return to a creative intelligence like never before.

But then, the day our employer turns unlawful, how do we know where to turn with no guidance or legal advice is available?

You clear lanes from the guardtower and educate, which is what is happening next telling the story about John Q. Battlefield and his war on woke over public access airwaves with death metal and creative writing for two hours weekly.

For the next 90 days, the path to exorcism will happen. The service is found at Hell is Warm on the Homefront blasting death metal in Upper Michigan and not giving legal advice at Death Metal Paralegal.

The connecting link is the upcoming blogs that track the journey to the Iron Mountain VA Hospital. We seek a roll call of those who are still in our ranks and what technology that will help them connect with Teleconnect services.

Rural accessibility has been an issue since the pandemic and will begin creating a Military Mindful WordPress connected newspaper called The Jaded Patriot Press.

For the next 36 months, the connection of data analytics with AM radio will kick off at Outpost 422. The radio station will broadcast from Aurora, Wisconsin built by those who love their military children.

Can the Sons of the American Legion be the answer veterans seek to resolve all conflicts with wokeism? Let’s argue then like gentleman and begin the process of rehabilitating Iron Mountain veterans into their Posts for Buddy Checks and Children and Youth protections from immigration for idenifying as transgender. They can be sons if it means saving them and we all can agree.

For Digital Marketing this semester, another version of Outpost 422 interactive creative writing devices shall be born into the Yahara Journal. John Q. Battlefield is the master’s thesis built through creative nonfiction around the variables of the Outpost 422 vantage point through roll call survey methods.

JOHN Q. BATTLEFIELD: THE COLLEGE EXPERIENCE WRITING DEVICE

The landing page for the Clarion Radio show is currently awaiting the first day of Digital Marketing. Writing devices quell sensory overload during college lectures and hope to teach Iron Mountain VA patients how to use the Cognitive Processing Therapy and Mindfulness Services available to them free of charge.

While visiting the Iron Mountain VA, the enrollment in the exorcism diploma will begin at Bob Larson University. The demons we exorcise are the blogs at Outpost 422. We roast their deeds with cumin and come out the other end mentally tough through diary storytelling.

We are on a quest at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee to build a Smart Military Minded Classroom experience at Madison College.

The hell is the woke professors who abuse us with rhetoric and gatekeeping with grading. The Sentry records woke and the evil manifested by bigotry.

Master’s Thesis Position A: The War on Wokeism and the disconnect with disenchanted veterans

Master’s Thesis Position B: The Whistleblower Reporting Style

Master’s Thesis Position C: Live Nation is the Devil

Each College Class Journey Builds the Pandemic Memoir from remote journalism blended with social media livestream documentary.

War is hell. There’s no place like hell in the eyes of your CEO when he fires you as a part-time security employee. His Machiavellian leadership goes against all that is shared in this leadership communication final project as a Warhawk.

Student veterans know better than bite into the apple of woke. We use courtesy titles and file equal rights complaints to keep our freedoms alive.

Next, we will roll all of the footage into a convergent media thesis and then blend legal research for data driven storytelling.

The devil is in the numbers. Ego manifests from intrusive thoughts. Choose the alternative thought.

Death Metal Paralegal shares the whipping and gnashing of teeth working venue security for Live Nation in Madison, Wis.

Resilience parajournalism is the road ahead for Outpost 422. My life was flipped upside down and now I have found another reporting method that blends my drumming with paralegal news reporting called “Death Metal Paralegal.”

Rather than play the victim, I revisited the material from the Madison College Mindfulness class and began to profile what I am learning is called “secondary sources” in the legal field as parajournalism.

Blogging and working at the Madison College Clarion Radio studio quickly helped me recover from uncertainty, which is the art of gonzo journalism. Now, becoming a paralegal has my mind set on writing about the legal side of gonzo.

It all began, roughly 15 months ago. I bought the administrative law complaint ticket, took the ride, I rolled the dice, quit my job, and tried to advocate for workplace fairness working for two employers. The job fueled the operation of this brand working in the freelance student media market. Outpost 422 emerged.

Machiavellian businesses are what we seek as a marketing investigative journalism firm and those who are the devil’s witness.

I was on a quest to interview the devil all summer after coming face-to-face with Robert Plant. For some strange reason, I crossed paths with John Bonham at the Rave too. It was in these moments a strange cold chill would walk through me and understand now that I have swallowed the gonzo storytelling red pill.

The devil works at the box office of Zak Bagans: The Haunted Museum.  I met him at the Lee Sober Shapiro exhibit who was overheard on the spirit box in the basement where Jenna Jameson’s father practiced the occult, heard growling in my face. I did not waiver. You see, the devil fired me three days before Veterans Day at the Sylvee before leaving for Las Vegas to continue this brand’s development journey.

The devil is egomania, which is what the Dept. of Veterans Affairs taught me. Those who manifest egomania manifest misery. Resilience diary provides sanctuary. I imagine the devil and reflect upon the misdeeds of others with sympathy. Your thoughts are on display in Las Vegas next to the Alisdair Crowley goblet. They look like stuffed birds hanging on the wall. The best part is that those dark and sinister thoughts are yours, not mine. The are the flux found in the microaggression and in every intrusive rhyme. 

The devil also emerged in the form of administrative law discrimination complaints and am certain after witnessing three times, he appeared in the form of a CEO and a General Manager, both hellbent on coverup and manifesting DemonSpeak.

One had a hot temper with children while the other allowed them into an all-ages drag show called, “Live on King St.” It was in these moments; I went full gonzo with email chains and spoke my whistleblower peace.

The devil showed up backstage a few times at the Orpheum who sang and whistled Dixie in the shower. The acoustics were fabulous. It was in this moment creative intelligence fueled my soul and started writing diary tracking traumatic brain injury with resilience reflection.

The gonzo elevator hell ride began to make me dizzy and the bright lights gave me migraines. The venue managers kept me in the elevator or back of house because I started creating lingo with our team when we would observe microaggressions.

DECLARATION OF USE INTERACTIVE EXHIBIT MODEL: 01.11.2025

This happened at chair fit at the Orpheum. We all agreed we were in a cult of the Majestic in Madison, Wis., hoping a union would set us free. I saw something. Said something at Tammy Baldwin’s election event and not one soul reported this for voter intimidation at a polling place to the police.

I got to work drafting diary entries and working on Tai Chi, which was the lesson we learned in Week four at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Intro to Mediation and Relaxation Course. Writing is where I relax and find reprieve knowing microaggressions were reported and unlawful so the crossroad presented itself…Should I take law classes and write my own interactive court exhibits, which launched with the Dept. of Education in 2022?

I introduce to you the Parajournalism branding of a pseudonym for grounding negativity. If You See Something, Say Something starts with micro aggressions.

EXHIBIT A: Glen Benton’s breath

Imagine going to work each day and tolerating unlawfulness. Civility with staff is like a Deicide concert and Live Nation is the devil in Madison, Wisconsin. Meanwhile, Los Angeles burns shortly after the members of As I Lay Dying walk out, I have come to believe the devil is Live Nation.

The lack of micro aggression monitoring at Live Nation venues is unbelievable. Disabled veterans receive bias from ever having opportunity. Whereas all who walk through the Eagle’s Ballroom Doors and frequent death metal shows are greeted with appreciation in the basement.

Getting fired was a huge blow to the gut emotionally but after catching my wind, I met a public relations professor who graded all of my blog press releases. So, what next? What would you do? You are the trademark gonzo journalism diary storyteller built from challenging belief. On Jan.10, just in time, I am meeting with a Veteran Legal Clinic and getting some guidance with becoming a paralegal soft news stringer Capitol investigative reporter.

Now, the paralegal executive decision has been made to brand another pseudonym forged in precision editing and able to loop the past with the future with double bass drumming, then the person using the resilience writing device research method this brand provides, then a choice must be made in this moment and track the brand for the Declaration of Use discovery in 2027.

I am a parajournalism demonologist providing the deliverable of bringing gonzo journalism through the pandemic. The devil is the dark side of journalism and double bass is the subject at Death Metal Paralegal, the blast beat protagonist standing up to micro aggressions with disabled veterans at the Wisconsin State Capitol. Split screen storytelling is the service featured below:

The obvious choice to turn this brand into a parajournalism reporting source was the clear path forward and thus, “Death Metal Paralegal,” a creative nonfiction resilience writing device was born that captured DemonSpeak through sound clips and developed a new feature writing style in the magazine feature writing field, which is the core foundation of writing well when attending college as a military-minded learner. I want to share with you a story about life after college graduation.

What will you do next?

The greatest writing inspiration came to me the day I was fired. The blogs on this website share my truth. I was targeted by Human Resources with shift leads and instead of getting upset, I meditated and then wrote short stories about my 13-month FPC Hell’s Angels gonzo Sylvee elevator journey revealed many secrets going on behind closed doors. We say, “that’s confidential I cannot disclose.” We are corporate venue security hazing disabled veterans on Tammy Baldwin’s election night plotting revenge for the resignation of Majestic Venue Manager Juanita Jackson and her unlawful microaggressions.

Now. The company banned you after trying to alert “If You See Something, Say Something,” which has been relayed to Sen. Ron Johnson. What is there to mediate? My ban letter. The exhibit is the first of many violations to my civil rights as a legal studies student and am on the quest to retrace all steps of the journey. Join me at Death Metal Paralegal coming to Vimeo soon…

Thursday Jan. 6, 2025, 8:45 p.m.—Imagine being a disabled veteran working for Live Nation under its Code of Conduct, working back of house security, when a deranged and distinguished shift lead wants to beat the shit out of you for asking “Cassidy” for an autograph from the singer of Black Veil Brides on your first day working part-time under the Wisconsin Division of Vocational Rehabilitation Program who requires you report monthly. You work diligently after graduating college to find the next endeavor of your journey. You meet Lt. Cindy Holmes of the Dane County Sherrif’s Dept. shortly after the shifty Sylvee shift lead, Ryan Janes, targets you for being different, or “like them,” meaning people with disabilities.

Parajournalism: The road ahead as a post-baccalaureate legal studies gonzo researcher at Madison College

On By Bob Cobb Freelance Ink LLC Word Press AdministratorLeave a comment

Creative intelligence is the road to freedom with traumatic brain injury. Finding the inner writing voice will Manifest Viqtory. Footloose and fancy free, such is the life of paralegal seeking a post-baccalaureate legal studies degree as a means for resilience writing.

As of Jan. 10, the road of gonzo here at Outpost 422 seeks gaining paralegal experience, which will eventually be a resource this brand provides for resilience writing tutoring through workshops. Resilience manifests when using a pseudonym.

YARN | As your attorney, I advise you | Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas ...

Bob Cobb the Capitol Wolf Watcher, the Outpost 422 newsroom, reporting to the Dept. of Homeland Security through pseudonyms and group writing for reporting unlawful behavior by those in power. We seek contributors to share their sheepdog stories as guardians of the community.

If You See Something, Say Something reporting only works if you are not a disabled veteran in Madison, Wisconsin. Instead, cancellation and social isolation are how student veterans of academia and DVR clients are groomed on the FPC Madison security team becoming jaded patriots—the gonzo news reporting device knowing journalism is a dead-end road two years after graduation. Writing needs no audience only reprieve. Writing resilience is on the rise in the veteran community. 

I say let’s start up a Wisconsin Capitol Capstone Writing Lobby. 

The subject: What makes a patriot jaded? Gonzo journalism and a Las Vegas habit, along with identifying as student veteran transfer student attend Madison College.

Many jaded patriots never make it to graduation, due to professor intimidation. Similar to the gonzo myth, magic and religion experience I had with a professor in 2018. The jaded patriot, as a writing device, started drifting off in anthropology class after getting hazed for being different. Being a veteran attending college later in life is a frivolous decision. Just a jaded patriot disposition.

“One of the ways we can use storytelling to understand the world, each other, and ourselves is through writing,” David Puter M.D. explains. “Research is beginning to emerge that suggests writing, composing a story, may prove to be a therapeutic avenue by which we overcome trauma.”

Exactly. Expressive writing is the key ingredient for Overcoming the Impossibility of a fixed mindset.

Resilience manifests when writing digests grief. Outpost 422 is an expressive writing device reporting to the world about disabled veteran mistreatment while serving in the trenches of the Wisconsin Division of Vocational Rehabilitation as a nontraditional client. The road is never ending, and the blogs are proof.

Each blog is a diary tracking the journey in the form of gonzo research, which is getting upgraded with a paralegal blending method next.

Fear and loathing introspection are the product Outpost 422 sells at its Jaded Patriot Press newsroom. Gonzo is the road of the nontraditional who blindly follow their college journey with nowhere to go.

Gonzo is the road of the student veteran being cancelled in America for protecting the Constitution under the Operation Vigilant Eagle watch that led to my employer using suspected PTSD as a weapon. Live Nation green-lighted the operation who biased several Code of Conduct violations on election night and now the road ahead is gonzo.

Each blog examines barriers with perception; the brand is a gonzo service. With a little late-night espresso and a few more moments to spend, a jaded patriot himself is dying hard as an investigative reporter to meet his soft news deadline in the field of gonzo. He gets up at noon and writes an email to his DVR counselor in the vein of parajournalism because Gonzo is a dying art.

He writes,

“Fear, loathing and groupthink are the issues I see costing the company time, energy and overhead with chair fit and interaction with shift leads and managers. On many occasions, I have reported my concerns through a confidential process only to be met with bias,” The Outpost 422 12-month report to my Wisconsin Division of Vocational Rehabilitation report to the director explained. “The company does not have an open-door policy. Only a whistleblower policy that I am fully exercising currently after being scolded openly for all to see by a venue manager on the company’s Humanity scheduling platform.”

Famous last words that led to conjuring the devil on firing day.

Rejection manifests when the devil is present. Creative intelligence opens the door to perseverance and thus conflict de-escalation is born. Creating a protagonist social media pseudonym captures the moment as a credible witness source. Keep it. You can use it to refer to what happened if you end up in court.

Death Metal Paralegal tracks the next phase of the paralegal journey who fights on the frontlines of homeland field correspondence with John Q. Battlefield.

Fear, the byproduct of unlawful business, is his employment law observation, drove a CEO insane, according to his Machiavellian volume that would later land him a Live Nation capricious misuse of authority whistle blow with his corporate master. Now, who knows where his gang of ‘rage quitters’ and “no call no shows” will go.

“It gives them recognition, a sense of companionship, group loyalty, and power,” Hunter S. Thompson explains regarding the groupthink perception of the Hell’s Angels, similar to working for Live Nation at FPC. “They get together and they can frighten people who might ordinarily frighten them.”

What you just read was p. 1, from “Ancient Gonzo Wisdom,” which explains groupthink with precision. As Thompson’s paralegal in the backseat on the way to Barstow, I would have to agree with him working the barricade at the Sylvee.

The blogs you read here track the college journey and profile unlawful language used by employers called “micro aggressions,” but at this reporting post, the subject is called:

John Q. Battlefield is the devil’s witness in the combat zone and is the deliverable from the Madison College honors literature review experience where a professor and the honors department were called out at a Student Senate meeting for their rogue behavior.

Death Metal Paralegal mans the Outpost 422 guard tower and Manifests Bolt Thrower Viqtory. Blending the gonzo services of John Q. Battlefield with the charisma of Death Metal Paralegal, I dynamic dualistic reporting style manifests resilience knowing writing devices require regulation.

Paralegal journalism is the convergence of law with scholarly gonzo research review. From introspect, the mind plays tricks while having a basic understanding of law will avoid loathing. Death Metal Paralegal combines a Spotify listening playlist with a diary, then converts the information into social media landscape storytelling.

Outpost 422 is a creative nonfiction parajournalism aggregator as a registered trademark sharing investigative journalism from the vantage point of the paralegal and how not to advise anyone legally unless practicing under a license.

Journalism is dead. Let’s face it. We live in the land of digital marketing and live in the land of loathing as a result. Parajournalism is here to save the day.

Parajournalism is the service provided by Outpost 422. As of Jan. 9, 2025, the registered trademark entered the “Orientation for Legal Professions” Course at Madison College returning from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater as a post-baccalaureate legal studies student and now the content will begin to shift into the direction of the legal side of gonzo journalism.

The marketing approach to investigative journalism would see the value of paralegal content blending and will be heading down the road of legal next.

John Q. Battlefield is the name of the Death Metal Paralegal hero who returns home on Clarion Radio.com. Parajournalism in this case is being filed as “STEM Journalism Law” blending multiple forms of news reporting into a pseudonym journey.

The journey plays weekly on Fridays at 5-7 p CST at www.clarionradio.com. The project is still under construction and the story will be capped on Jan. 10, with a Veteran Legal

“Time Down Range with John Q. Battlefield” helped me cope with what I learned investigating my honors literature review. One can’t help but take the information personal and learned to apply sonnet writing to calm my soul.

Being a show host at the Clarion is how Outpost 422 started. Now, the profile shares the burden of trying to reintegrate in the workforce being individually unemployable with multiple service-related injuries. The gonzo is also the show host crucible with blending podcasts with blogs as a weekly repeating show.

The material shared in the podcast is landscape pre-recorded footage. The sonnets were written over several soul-searching trips as a journalism major not knowing where to break in the market. Podcast script writing is my passion.

Writing devices helped monitor mistakes and free write as a social media publisher. Now, “Time Down Range” is the subject referring to how war translates to exercising G.I. Benefits and the lived experience outcome.

John Q. Battlefield is a resilience writing device for convergent media sampling that launched for the troops at Forward Operating Base Fenty when Outpost 422 adopted the Apache pilot platoon. Adopting troops was where the first resilience manifestation was recorded during the pandemic. Luckily, the war ended.

John Q. Battlefield wakes up each day as a student veteran standing up to micro aggressions from the power group. He now understands that micro aggressions are unlawful and are being reported here.

“Time Down Range” refers to the oppression of military culture on college campuses. The story will finish at the end of Intro to Law under the proctoring of a Marine Corps jag retiree professor and am loving the idea of having a military minded instructor.

The parajournalism road ahead will narrate stories with law and news. Follow the action by clicking on the link at the Capitol Capstone Journal as Outpost 422 launches a Vimeo news channel coming soon…

PRESS RELEASE: Former FPC security employee asks Live Nation to inspect ‘capricious misuse of authority’ by FPC CEO

On By Bob Cobb Freelance Ink LLC Word Press AdministratorLeave a comment

 


FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
01.05.2025

Former FPC security employee asks Live Nation to inspect “capricious misuse of authority” by FPC CEO

[Veterans Memorial Coliseum, Madison, Wis.] —Frank Productions LLC (FPC) is a subsidiary of Live Nation who used “at-will” firing to dispose of a disabled veteran on their part-time security team with a “threatening violence” ban letter after coming forward calling out violations to Live Nation’s anti-intimidation policy. The intimidation took place Nov. 5, at the Orpheum on the night of U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin’s election.

Baldwin was reached on Jan. 4, 2025, seeking a meeting to discuss the events that took place. The subjects being discussed are retaliation and wrongful termination three days after Baldwin’s event carried out firsthand by FPC’s CEO Joel Plant. Live Nation has the right to respond and investigate as a violation of its Code of Conduct, according to its whistleblower policy.

The company exploited a private discussion with a shift lead about revisiting “Freedom Firearms,” which is an ongoing story assignment working for the Madison College Clarion newspaper. A slack discussion turned into a career ending firing mechanism. “Firearms were discussed,” Plant said, as he fired the disabled veteran, Outpost 422 CEO Bradley J. Burt, whose brand reports for his contract with the State of Wisconsin Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (DVR).

“I am concerned for future employees with disabilities who apply and work for Frank Productions. As an employee with a disability, I have zero support from managers,” The Outpost 422 DVR 12-Month Employment Progress Report to DVR Director Jennifer Klein stated. “When I try to discuss my grievances, my concerns are dismissed. Instead of deescalating, the company digs deep and makes matters worse thus leading to reporting my grievance to the chief executive officer to fully exercise my chain of command. The needs of the disabled cannot be overlooked, especially when working security.”

On Friday Dec. 28, 2024, Burt placed a phone call to the Live Nation employer referral hotline outlining his devil’s witness of the “arbitrary and capricious misuse of authority” demonstrated by FPC’s executive and management team. FPC exploited suspected P-T-S-D as their weapon of choice for “at-will” termination without possessing an actual diagnosis. The company used a “Interactive Dialogue Process Questionnaire” to enforce bringing forward facts about P-T-S-D suspicion after witnessing Majestic Venue Manager Juanita Jackson resign over intimidation allegations brought forward by Burt.

Burt’s letter to the CEO lit the fuse for the process of papering, which was mentioned by Plant at the firing meeting. The letter was an eight-page gonzo industry profile referring to FPC’s selection for promotion, advancement and the instructions to Senior Security Manager Dave Fulbright’s, “If you got an idea, bring it forward,” philosophy. Fulbright hired Burt and was made aware on several occasions through DVR reports, who stated, “There are a lot of grey areas with disability” when accommodations were requested, meanwhile, human resources claim the company was unaware of Burt’s disability in a follow up email.

“We will not tolerate discrimination or harassment by anyone – managers, supervisors, coworkers, vendors, independent contractors, volunteers, interns or our customers. This policy extends to every phase of the employment process,” Live Nation, who is the primary stake holder of Frank Productions LLC, states on p. 18 of its Code of Conduct policy. “Including: recruiting, hiring, training, promotion, compensation, benefits, transfers, discipline and termination, layoffs, recalls, and company-sponsored educational, social and recreational programs, as applicable. If you observe conduct that you believe is discriminatory or harassing, or if you feel you have been the victim of discrimination or harassment, you should notify your immediate supervisor, your Human Resources Representative or the Employee Service Line immediately.”

The intimidation witnessed at Baldwin’s election night special event was swept under the rug and then, the publication of a letter banning the disabled veteran employee for “threatening violence.” The subject being brought forward to Administrative Law Judge Laura J. Amundson regarding papering and how Plant flexed his “arbitrary” leadership, which was modeled by multiple executives and managers. Outpost 422 is on the reporting scene in Dane County surveying the needs of neurodivergent learners.

The call to action here is clear—The Federal Government must recognize discrimination of war veterans in Wisconsin’s DVR Program and their unfavorable treatment that happened with the firing of FPC’s CEO. No procedure by the State of Wisconsin is in place granting immunity to a war veteran when approached by Human Resources Managers like FPC’s Hailey Davis, who downplayed the events and then sat in Burt’s termination meeting. Baldwin has the power to protect war veterans in Dane County, especially holding employers accountable through admonishment in public address.

Live Nation doing business as Frank Productions LLC in the Madison, Wis., venue security field poses a threat to the future of disabled veterans. Live Nation was offered a deadline of Jan. 7, 2025, to respond to the malicious falsehoods presented by Plant and his venue management’s team’s bogus ban letter. The allegations are false, and time will determine the outcome with the wrongful termination recorded and publicly documented through DVR as a means to end the madness of socially stigmatizing disabled veterans who report suspicious activity as a threat, especially at FPC.
