Every citizen should ask themselves if they are living a life worthy of the sacrifices of our Fallen?

Sgt. LeRoy A. Mendonca... thank you for my life.

WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA





"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. "





Our Founding Fathers brought this essential freedom into existence through great adversity. It is under attack now more than at any other time during our lives. We are called on to uphold and defend it, whatever the cost!





Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Good evening, Gator113...a very good thought. We cannot repay those sacrifices, but we can live and honor them.

And we thank you for your service to our country.

Aloha West Texas Rose!

Portagees from Hawaii are very dedicated, proud and determined folks. Sgt. Mendonca proves my point.

Presenting a hand salute with you, Caisson 71.

Indeed, as all Hawaiian patriots are! He did what he had to
to protect and defend, and I am always proud of you soldiers,
sailors, airmen and marines for that! :)

We need to return to what they envisioned for this great land!

SUPPORT OUR TROOPS!




Tattoo

Must retire – the 0500 Reveille approaches relentlessly – the bugler already mounts the parapet. Will chat with you all on the morrow.

Good night, God bless you, and God bless the United States of America!

Godspeed our Troops around the Globe – especially those in harm’s way – by virtue of their service and sacrifice we continue to live in Freedom!

Congress seems to have forgotten a few things.

Great post, Mac!

Howdy, Kathy! (((hugs)))

We had a cooler day but very windy. No rain or other water-
based events. All the tornadoes were way north of here. Thank goodness...
but hate that they were deadly in NW Oklahoma. :(
