Amen, Maggie. Thank you for saying what I would say, if I had your way with words. :-)
everyone in the military is as important a cog in the wheel as any other
This is so true!
Each branch of our Armed Forces is indeed as important as all the others, interdependent in achieving victories wherever necessary.
Further, everyone in the military is as important a cog in the wheel as any other, whether they fly bombers, cook the grub, man a tank or Humvee, dart through dangerous areas on foot, work in secret mingling with locals, provide the Payroll, pick up the garage, or sail the high seas...
Now, with our Commander-in-Chief a man who follows our God, we have confidence of this being noted in history as the greatest assemblage of military power for good as any ever devised.
Its purpose is not to conquer other lands to control them, but to assist others in finding the freedoms we so enjoy, and must never take for granted.
"Peace" protests against using military power do absolutely nothing to convince those with evil intentions to change!
They merely laugh at them with contempt for their ignorance, and are further encouraged.
May we always remember the purpose for our valiant defenders of justice and freedom, and cover them with fervent prayers...
Amen, Maggie. Thank you for saying what I would say, if I had your way with words. :-)
