NRA Board Election & CCW for Soldiers? | SOTG 1337
Friday, 17 April, 2026

Wanna hear the FULL Episode? Sign up for the Grad Program today! Most service members have been denied their right to carry privately owned firearms on military bases until now. A landmark memorandum signed by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth finally empowers troops to exercise their Second Amendment rights during off-duty hours, transforming military installation policies that treated soldiers like second-class citizens for decades. In this eye-opening episode, we delve into the profound implications of this policy change. Hear the inside story of how years of bureaucratic mindset have now shifted to favor personal protection for those who voluntarily serve our nation. We explore the deep-rooted issues of disarmament, officers' elitism, and the dangerous mentality that Army and Marine Corps troops cannot be trusted with firearms, an outdated outlook that still lingers in many ranks. Discover how the Department of Defense's internal culture has historically suppressed the individual's right to self-defense, and how the new memo aims to correct that injustice.
