This coming Saturday there will be a Military service for Petty Officer Chad Regelin (U.S. Navy) in Anderson CA. Chad, who worked in EOD, was killed in Afghanistan on 1/2/12 while trying to recover evidence of an IED explosion, apparently from a manually operated IED. The service will be at a church on Riverside Ave in Anderson, and the PGR will conduct a flag line at 9:30 am. Military Honors are scheduled to take place at the N. CA Veterans Cemetary at Igo, CA at 1:00 pm.

It is reported by the local news (Redding CA) that the Westboro Baptist Church will be protesting this funeral service. If you have a contact with anyone in the Patriot Guard Riders within California, or know of anyone in CA who might be interested in honoring this man, and providing a shield against the protesters, please help get the word out.

Good morning, Kathy!

*HUGS*

I'm in awe of guys like Petty Officer Regelin who are tasked with EOD - they are a special breed. The WBC are simply beneath contempt. I hope and pray that our friends in PGR do their usual outstanding job in shielding Chad's family and friends from the outrageous conduct of these evil people.

Very sad news from Amy's Place - Freepers Tiapam, Cardhu and Yorkie were in an automobile accident. Tiapam and Cardhu are gone - Yorkie is in hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Did not know Cardhu - Tiapam was a dear soul with many friends. Yorkie, as you know, posts on the Canteen from time to time. Prayers going up for all three of them. May Tiapam and Cardhu rest in eternal peace. May Yorkie have a full, speedy recovery from her injuries, both to the body and to the soul.

Etiam non princeps sed usque ad genua, Principis Pacis!
