Good morning Jen.

You know AntiJen, I getting a little sick of these "Anti-War" Fools.

Here an axiom and please tell me if I am right on this. These people are a bunch of commie-pinko American hating SOB's. When they protest the war they are also protesting those that have to prosecute the war. They call us baby killers and warmongers.

I wonder how much "peace and pacifism" would they have if someone was trying to rob them or rape their daughters? Would they fight or would they say stupid stuff like "give peace a chance"?

It galls me because they are prostesting me and my brothers and sisters in the armed forces. They are also protesting people like you that support the men and women that have to leave home got to some stinking sandbox to liberate people.

There is no such thing as a bloodless revolution. Sure they wave signs in protest, do they ever think about the men that fight and died to give them that right. The men of the 9th and 10th Calvary proved this time and again.

Men like my father SFC James T Clark during two hot lead filled nights in June 1953 was fighting for his life against the North Koreans and Chinese. Because of his courage and valor his country awarded him the Silver Star for galantry in action. This man grew up in abject poverty in Mississppi in the '30's and 40's. Now he didn't even have the right to vote during that time. A greater good in him and moral fiber made him do his duty. He didn't dodge the draft he accepted his responsiblity as a proud man, as an American. He also knew that despite the environment that he had to live under he believed in the possibilites of American. He passed these values and ideals onto me and my bothers and if he were alive today he would be proud of all of us.

So when the President sends me off to war I will fight not only for peace but for a man that half century ago was in the fight of his life. No one in those battles care about my father's skin color. They followed him into combat because he was a LEADER! In war there is no time for ism's there are no atheists or racists either.

The biggest lesson that my late father taught me is that nobody is going to give you anything especially freedom, you have to fight for it. He fought for freedom and respect in Korea and he got it too.

To the heavens and all that read this I proclaim with tears in my eyes. Thanks Dad for raising a man and I will do you proud and continue to follow your leadership, example and remember the things you taught me about life,death and war.

Love, your son LT Clark

This is why I fight, this is why I love my country. Thank God my ancestor were brought over here from Africa in order for me to have the opportunity to grow up and be free!

PEACE MOVEMENT EQUALS BOWEL MOVEMENT

Present!

If i see a connection btwn the Westerfield story and the Peterson story i'll mention it if i want to and you'll just have to deal with it.

may i remind all of you that the COMMANDING GENERAL of both the 9th & 10th CAV, as well as the 1st USV cavalry, in Cuba was none other than MG "Fighting Joe" Wheeler, late of the CSA cavalry. MG Wheeler was a sitting congressman at the time.
