Quote of the Day:

President Bush: A soldier can walk the battlefields where he once fought; a Marine can walk the beaches he once stormed; but an airman can never visit the patch of sky he raced across on a mission to defend freedom. And so it's fitting that, from this day forward, the men and women of the Air Force will have this memorial, a place here on the ground that recognizes their achievements and sacrifices in the skies above.

I wish that just once our local paper, the Philadelphia Inquirer, would have something good to say about our President, George W. Bush. I wish every American could read this beautiful tribute to our Air Force. But that would be expecting too much. Which is why I only read the comics and local news.

Thank you for posting this quote for all of us to read and treasure, silent_jonny.
