Thanks Mike.......well said and my sentiments exactly. I was not aware of the story about the chaplains from WWII....thank you and I thank those courageous selfless men.

I cannot believe the liberal whiners concerning the situation in Iraq and Afghanistan. A total of 10 million people died in WWI and over 30 million perished in WWII. Not sure of the total for Korea, but I will always remember the 58,000+ service men and women that paid the ultimate price in Nam.

War is the most senseless horror that man will thrust upon his fellow man, however, there are times because of greed, evil, and basic human nature that we, as Americans, have to stand up to be counted and to serve with respect, honor and dignity.

May God Bless all those who have fallen to protect the USA.
