Rick would have been last out of the building. Anything less, he would consider an act of cowardice. Garry Owen, my dear, dear friend. If you don't make it out of this one, I'll see you on the other side. Hoka Hey

Indeed, Rescorla's photo is on the cover of the book, written with Galloway and now being made into a movie starring Mel Gibson.

What an incredible conclusion this movie will have. I'm glad Mel is doing it rather that one of the usual Hollwood Tripe's.

``He is a true American hero,'' Moore said, ``and if this is actually going to be called a war . . . then Rick deserves a Medal of Honor.'' ....

RESCORLA DESERVES THE MEDAL OF HONOR...Let's see he gets it.

NEVER FORGET

...It was the CLINTONS that stopped the CIA in 1995 from recruiting and hiring the very Spies America needed to expose what Terrorists had in mind for it.

DON'T LET THE CLINTONS GET AWAY WITH IT.

NEVER FORGET
