(Mafree---yes, an excellent article written two months ago but so appropriate today ......as well....)
marylina - your words are so very timely also.
I know millions are praying for our Commander in Chief, for our leaders, and for our investigative agencies, and our troops.....or, if they aren't, they should be!
and, yes, what a burden he carries! What a burden they all carry! Apart from God's help, I do not see how he does it!
Bump for those who lost their lives or were disabled. Our close freinds and family, Greg Curtis, STover (Stoggie), Phil, TOM Clark, Archie Cockland (my husbands sargeant major who died in Alaska during a military flight) Johhny Pospicle (we called him popsicle) Willie Woods!!! And for my POW who I worked with so hard, who I loved so much when he returned to us at Andrews AFB, for all he lost. I will always love him, and one day hope to see him again.
For my highschool friend who lost his leg. For people who lost their minds over there. For those who endured the hurt and confusion of the welcome they recieved when they returned. Please know our hearts are with you every day of every year. We are your brother and sister in arms. We love you. We care. We honor you and thank you for your service.
For My dad, who served as a Navy cook, but ruined his back and was discharged after a couple years. Then for Arts Dad, who flew during WWII, in one of those really cool bi-plane things that had a gorgeous babe painted on the nose.
To TOM,.. who would not get on the copter until all his men were in,..it resulted in him being shot in the back, causing him to be a parapalegic for the rest of his life,..May God Grant you peace. To all who have suffered yet persevered and succeeded in life, and still found reason to be so proud of your service.. we salute you. We love you!! We thank GOD for you!!!
FRegards!!!
