No soldier who has been in war wants a war.

That said, If we do not defeat this Communist take-over attempt, there will be a backlash like my generation has never seen. (I am 60)

I have kept the following quote for many years:

"Adversity employs great talents; prosperity renders them useless and carries the inept, the corrupted wealthy and the wicked to the top.

May they bear in mind that virtue often contains the seeds of tyranny.

May they bear in mind that it is neither gold nor even a multitude of arms that sustains a state, but its morals.

May each of them keep in his house, in a corner of this field, next to his workbench, next to his plow, his gun, his sword, and his bayonet.

May they all be soldiers.

May they bear in mind that in circumstances where deliberation is possible, the advice of old men is good, but that in moments of crisis youth is generally better informed that its elders.

Denis Diderot

Apostrophe to the Insurgents, 1782"
