OPSEC
Thanks for post!
"Fitting, then, that he arms himself with the ultimate sign of the victory of life over death: the image of Christ crucified, the cross that stands revealed as the tree of life. Christ went to his death for all of us so that we might have everlasting life. Our soldiers put their lives on the line and accept the possibility of death so that we might live with the blessings of liberty.
Greater love hath no man applies most perfectly to the God-man who laid down his life for all mankind, but it also applies to all others who lay down their lives for their buddies, their families, their friends, and even the countless people they do not know but who live in liberty because of their sacrifices.
May the absurdity of the Cross of Christa stumbling block to Jews and madness to Gentiles (see: 1 Cor 1:18-25)provide the spiritual strength for all of our fighting men and women to come through in health and endure the woundsthe ones we can see, but more especially the ones we cannot see that hurt even more and for a longer time."
I second the OPSEC. I wish noncoms would crack the heck down on cameras in the squad. We don’t want this fine young soldier to run afoul of any enemies, either foriegn or domestic.
