I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith. 2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)
God Of Our Fathers
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace! We who remain hold you in high honor. Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct; We who remain keep this place sacred. Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades; We who remain keep the watch. Rest, fallen brother, among these who answered the Nations call; We who remain press the fight forward in your name. Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden; We who remain have taken up the torch. Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

Im Right; You Must Be Wrong
Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Luke 6:37
My friend Ria admires the great blue herons amazing 6-foot spread of wings and marvels at his majestic appearance. She welcomes the sight of him gliding in for a landing on a small island in the middle of the pond near her home.
Now, I can appreciate that the heron is a marvelous and unique creature. But I dont ever want to spot him in my backyard! Thats because I know he wont be there just to admire the garden. No, this not-so-fine-feathered version of persona non grata (someone not welcome) will be checking out our pond for a take-out fish dinner!
So, am I right? Or is Ria? Why cant we agree? Different personalities, history, or knowledge can color peoples views. It doesnt mean that one person is right and the other wrong, yet sometimes we can be unkind, rigid, and judgmental if there is not agreement. Im not talking about sinbut just a difference in opinion or perspective. We need to take care in judging others thinking, motives, and actions because we too desire that kind of benefit of the doubt (Luke 6:37).
Can we learn from someone who sees things with a different perspective? Do we need to practice a little patience and love? Im so grateful that God is abundantly patient and loving with me.
Youve been so patient with us, Lord,
Though we are slow to hear;
Give us the grace to show such love
To those we hold so dear. K. De Haan

Thank you Kathy for remembering the US Merchant Marine.
On a percentage basis the merchant marine lost more people than anyone except for the marines. A torpedo to a Liberty ship carrying ammunition simply blew the ship up with no survivors.
Several friends were on the Murmansk run during WWII and went to the lifeboats at least once.
The US Merchant Marine is a fine school but so are the state academies in New York, Maine, Massachusetts, California, Texas, Michigan. Several schools run by the various maritime unions are also world-class.
