Deb that’s most touching.

Eternal gratitude to your husband for his service & to you all for your sacrifice.

Such a beautiful family you have & nice to meet you! *Hugs*

I just remembered how I found Drudge.....

I was listening to the Mary Matalin talk show, and she said that her listeners would like this website. Go to the Drudge Report, and click on Whitewater....

Lamh Foistenach Abu!

Hi PKM, may I be the first to wish you a happy 10th anniversary on FR.

I watched your Sooners give Washington a drubbing a couple of weeks ago. They really look good.

[AZamericonnie]

Thanks for sharing ishmac & hope you went through the storm ok!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks, Mac, for the Missing Man Setting. We must never forget the sacrifice of those who gave their all for us to be free and safe.

[Jemian]

Thank you, thank you. I’ve enjoyed my island of sanity from the looney liberal media.

THE SOLDIER’S CODE

---

---

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.

Was a regular on the L site. Got booted off by some old maid scolds for daring to call Ahnold Schwarzenegger a RINO. Immediately came to FR and have been happy ever since.

I forgot that the first mission, but got one for the next few!

"Look, Ma, I washed my woobie!!"
