Hello strangers. Happy Monday.

Sorry that I've been away for so many days. I had a nasty bug.
I spent all of Thursday and Friday in bed. I finally got up Friday night to eat a bowl of soup.

Thank you for being here during my absence. I appreciate you.

Meg, thank you for the beautiful Sunday Thread.

Mayor, thank you for being here everyday with ODB.

Conor, thank you for being here everyday with your wonderful posts.

Kitty Mittens, Thank you for being here daily with your kind words and your sweet graphics.

Jaycee, Yorkie, Diver Dave, GailA ... you and all of our hurting friends are in my prayers.

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 glad you’re feeling better Amy, you’re probably still weak from all that. My son came to visit all weekend and I enjoyed that.

Love your image, saved it but had a hard time deciding on what to name it, lol!! Take care.
