Military Commanders Support Tim D’Annunzio for Congress

RAEFORD, NC – Tim D’Annunzio, Republican candidate for Congress in the 8^th district, today announced two endorsements of his campaign by high-ranking, retired military officials.

Lt. Gen. (Ret) Jerry Boykin and Lt. Col. (Ret) Bucky Burruss have announced that they are supporting Tim this election year.

General Boykin, former Commanding General of both the U.S. Army Special Operations Command and the JFK Special Warfare Center, made his endorsement of Tim official at a fundraiser earlier this week. He made it clear that he is only supporting one additional candidate this year, Republican Roy Moore for Governor of Alabama.

“In 1776, our founding fathers pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor for this country, even as they faced the threat of execution for treason,” Boykin said at the fundraiser. “Our country is at another critical juncture, facing threats from socialists and terrorists, and those who want to do this country harm. Tim D’Annunzio is the man we need in Washington, to fight to restore our country, and fight for the American Dream.”

Lt. Col. (Ret) Bucky Burruss, a former Special Operations Commander, also pledged to support Tim this year.

“Tim D’Annunzio has the understanding of what it takes to get this country back on track,” Burruss said. “He’s a veteran who knows it will take a fight to get back to the basics of the Constitution and the foundations that made this country great.”

Over 100 people attended the fundraiser to support Tim D’Annunzio and to hear Lt. Col. Burruss and Lt. Gen. Boykin endorse his campaign for Congress.
