Next year we can try a thread just about the history of the “Code Talkers”.

I can use the history you are sharing. Would you like to do a thread? Pictures? I’ll save all the stuff you’ve already posted. I’m still at work and neck deep in payroll stuff.

WOW...about Hitler sending anthropoligists to America.

GOD BLESS AMERICA!!

God Bless you good, Mac. Good night and rest well. Thanks for helping honor our troops, past and present. Thank you for your service to our country.

Nighty-night, Conor (I almost called you by your name! LOL)

Thanks for your faithfulness in bringing our attention to our wonderful military heroes! (((hugs)))

[luvie]

Very much so. The Code Talkers are real American heroes!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Be sure to read the posts by ansel12....LOTS of really good stuff about the code talkers of other tribes.

If I start soon, we might be able to get a good thread together for another day. Time is an enemy.

Ya’ah’teh Kathy!

[luvie]

Thank you, Kathy...I will! :)

The difference being that the white-boy radio guy could endanger his entire platoon or company because the Germans and the Japanese had guys who could speak English, lending the possibility of breaking the code spoken in English.

You're kind of a dirty bird, aren't you?

[Kathy in Alaska]

And Ya’ah’teh to you, too. Thanks for stopping in.

The Anchor Of Our Hope
August 14, 2013

Frank, Ted, and I were fishing for bluegill on Rice Lake in Ontario, Canada. We were on a pontoon boat, and the fish were really biting. Busy baiting and hooking, we slowly became aware that the action had slacked off. Then we realized why: The boat was no longer sitting where we had put it. A strong wind had come up and pushed it across the water. The anchor could not hold us and was sliding across the lake bottom. We hauled it up, returned to our hot spot, and re-anchored. We were moved away again. After a third try, we went back to shore. We could not get our anchor to grab and stick.

When it comes to our salvation, our hope is anchored in the promise of God and the work of Jesus Christ. The winds and waves of doubt, discouragement, and spiritual attack by the evil one can cause us to think that we are adrift and salvation from God is not secure. Not so! God has given His promise that our salvation is sure, and He cannot lie (Heb. 6:18-19). Our hope is securely fastened in Jesus Christ who redeemed us once and for all when He died, rose again, and ascended to heaven.

Our anchor is the Rock unmovable—Jesus Christ. His limitless love holds us sure and steadfast.

We have an anchor that keeps the soul,
Steadfast and sure while the billows roll;
Fastened to the Rock which cannot move,
Grounded firm and deep in the Savior’s love. —Owens

Our anchor is the Rock, Jesus Christ.

Read: Hebrews 6:13-20

This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast. —Hebrews 6:19

Bible in a Year:
Psalms 91-93; Romans 15:1-13

Good morning, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for body and soul.

[ansel12]

Well that was a creepy and racist enough post.

We understand the use of different codes, but different Marine radio operators doing the same exact things while using a different code from each other, hardly makes one more heroic.

Good afternoon/evening/night Troops, wherever you are.

Thank you for doing your part to help keep all of us free and safe.

Thanks, unique, for the pastries.

Coffee is always on........
