Wow, look at Redrock.  He's making us look like pikers.  Are we going to let him show us up like that?

Great effort Redrock.  Your family will touch many people with their thoughtful efforts.  Thank you very much.

I Love the US Military!


Go Troops Go!

Eulogy for a Veteran

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the Gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the mornings hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight,
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there,
I did not die.

THE GUARDIANS

GOD LOOKED AROUND HIS BARRACKS;
AND SAW SOME EMPTY SPACES;
HE LOOKED DOWN ON 'OLE HAMBURGER HILL;
AND SAW AIRBORNES TIRED FACES.
HE PUT HIS ARMS AROUND THEM;
AND TOOK THEM IN HIS CARE;
GOD SMILED AND SAID,
"THIS PLATOON HAS DONE ENOUGH"
YOU SEE HE WANTED THEM "UP THERE"
I CRIED AND CRIED,
WHEN I HEARD THEY HAD GONE;
BUT THEY DID NOT GO ALONE;
FOR MOST OF ME WENT WITH THEM,
THE DAY 1ST PLATOON WENT HOME.
SO BEWARE AMERICAN ENEMYS;
YOU ARE DOOMED WHEREEVER YOU GO;
WE GOT AIRBORNE GUARDING HEAVENS GATES,
THE 1ST OF BRAVO-

Will pledge to do as many e-mails as I can. My prayers are with my son who is in boot camp -- US Army. Looking forward to seeing him in July.

Wow! What a good idea! And what good graphics! They are wonderful - who did them?

Pinging fellow Daily Dosers....apologies if you have already been "pinged".

I pledge 100 emails from myself today and challenge all NC Freepers who may read this to meet that challenge of 100 by yourselves or with other NC Freepers. (CD - can you pass that NC Challenge along?)

Let's roll!

[DoughtyOne]

Thank you for the additional links. And thanks for your continuing efforts to support the military.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

Dear God:
I ask that no Airman, Coast Guardsman,
Marine, Sailor or Soldier
Feel alone or forgotten.
Please guide the people of Free Republic to
The USO Canteen Post Office
So they can e-mail a service man or woman today.
AMEN

[DoughtyOne]

Thank you. I developed nine collages to begin with, and will be developing upwards of 40 more. Of course the original artists of these multiple art works and photographs deserve most of the credit.
