Veterans for Constitution Restoration is a non-profit, non-partisan educational and grassroots activist organization. The primary area of concern to all VetsCoR members is that our national and local educational systems fall short in teaching students and all American citizens the history and underlying principles on which our Constitutional republic-based system of self-government was founded. VetsCoR members are also very concerned that the Federal government long ago over-stepped its limited authority as clearly specified in the United States Constitution, as well as the Founding Fathers' supporting letters, essays, and other public documents.

A man of high character. Defines "respectable".

Notice, everyone, how effective real riflemen are in war.

Appears they were up against Fallschirmyaeger, and early war ones, the sort of lads who defended Monte Cassino town. Brings a feeling of quiet satisfaction.
