I honor my son, Cpl Jesse Porter, Kiowa and Creek, of the 2/5 Marines who fought in Ramadi and Fallujah, and my cousin, Sergeant David Taptto, Kiowa and Nez Perce, of the 3/1 Marines badly wounded in the Battle of Fallujah. We thank God for the Navy Corpsman who saved my cousin's life at Fallujah.

every Kiowa who joins USA marines would be wise to study a great warrior named Arminius. he is legendary! his tactics achieved a brilliant victory! = he nailed 30,000 Romans,(3 Legions!!), in 3 days!! and poor little Augustus cried, "Varus!! where are my legions??"  do an honor song for Arminius! he earned it!
