REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!





HN (FMF) Benjamin D. Rast, USN, 1st Battalion, 23rd Marine Regiment, 4th Marine Division, Marine Forces Reserve, KIA Afghanistan 6APR2011




I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)


Eternal Father, Strong to Save



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, amid these who heeded the Nation’s 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!

Good evening Kathy & thank you for this evenings thread! *hugs

You Are Sledding
You are a very self-aware person, but you never take yourself too seriously.
You have an ironic view of life and yourself. When things get tough, you can get philosophical.

You are easygoing and easy to please. You love to break out of your comfort zone.
You are too much of a generalist to specialize in anything. There are many fields you dabble in.
Are You Skiing, Sledding, Skating, or Snowboarding?

Yes, skiing is exactly how I destroyed my knee!

Completely tore my ACL, tore my meniscus, tore cartilage, and had deep bone bruising.

The doctor and my physical therapist told me it will be a good year or so before it starts to feel “normal”.

Unfortunately, I AM close to the fire zone. Some fire south
of us has made our sky very hazy and it smells like a huge
barbeque outside. Not good!

God rest the souls of these fallen heroes...and please console
their aching families and friends as they mourn their loss.

Hi Kathy, well I’m on the on-call rotation so if anything happens during the week until Sunday, I’m IT!!!!! Then I go back to off-call (like if another pilot is sick or something) then I have a week off.
