Dear Meg, I'm keeping your grandson in my prayers.
I will also add your daughter to my prayer list.

Your Sunday Opening and Closing were both beautiful.
Thank you for being the PERFECT Sunday Hostess.
I appreciate all that you do.

Good evening, Mayor.

Thank you for being here everyday for us. We appreciate all that you bring to Amy’s Place.

If you get your last Glenn Beck appearance on YouTube, please ping me. I missed it and then fell asleep and missed the re-run.

Keep up the good fight. I’m looking forward to the local July 4th Tea Party. Hopefully there will be a large turnout.

Have a Wonderful Week.

GOOD MILITARY MONDAY TO AMY’S PLACE!

The Soldier’s Code

1) I am an American fighting man. I serve in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense.

2) I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender my men while they still have the means to resist.

3) If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.

4) If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information or take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me, and will back them up in every way.

5) When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am bound to give only name, rank, service number, and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies, or harmful to their cause.

6) I will never forget that I am an American fighting man, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

President Dwight D. Eisenhower, August, 1955.

I’m happy that you enjoyed the quotes. His poem is probably just a matter of taste.

Written by someone named Jack Deth, who seems to possess a Feline's soul
And knows all of the deliciously secret things that make us lose control
