Thanks very much, Kathy and Star !

***HUGS***



The Berlin Airlift was always inspiring to me. I remember reading about it in my history books in elementary school! This was in the late 50’s and the books rendered an accurate and positive account of the operation. These days, it’s probably not even mentioned in the history books used to indoctrinate our children into the Socialist collective.

The Berlin Airlift demonstrates all that is good in America. Our Air Force boys faced considerable danger making the run into Berlin, not only due to difficult landing conditions at the Berlin airports, but due to persistent harassment from Soviet fighters while flying through the corridors.

Operation Little Vittles is particularly illustrative of the goodness and generosity of the American GI. The “Candy Bomber” was an individual airman who acted exactly as countless American GI’s would in his position.

The exploits and generosity shown by members of the American Armed Forces during the Berlin Airlift and on many other occasion is inspiring and makes me proud to be an American.

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

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, Mac...*HUGS*...did you marshal all your forces and get your tree finished?

Hope you had some good rest today.

We got several things crossed off the “to do” list and I finished getting my mailings ready. I will take them to work and mail them. I seem to be doing better on “timing” than last year. d:o)
