Positive Patriotism: Reigniting Our Love of Country

We live in a polarized time, with Americans as pessimistic about the future of the country as they have been in the last 60 years. Now more than ever, we need a reminder of what America is and who Americans are. At this time, I am so proud to introduce to you my first book titled Positive Patriotism: Reigniting Our Love of Country. This book analyzes the falling patriotism among Americans, identifies causes, and provides simple, straightforward, solutions to regain our gratitude and reverence for America. Authored by David Pinkston, a retired US Navy Captain with 32 years of service, this book is not just a narrative; it's an invitation to reconnect with our nation's core values and rich history. David Pinkston, retired as a Captain after 32 years of service in the United States Navy. Prior to his retirement, he supported every phase of modern warfare from strategic, operational, and tactical level including submarine operations in the pacific to special operations in Afghanistan and Iraq. David received his BA, in 1993, from the University of North Texas, in political science and Russian studies, where he completed an exchange program in St. Petersburg, Russia. He earned his master's degree in National Security, from the National Intelligence University. After retiring, in March of 2022, David moved back to Texas where he lives with his wife. He is the President and Founder of Positive Patriotism LLC., where he advocates for greater civic responsibility by promoting awareness of American military history, culture, and leadership.
