*HUGS*
It's great to see you this evening!
I can't recall having seen a funnier comedian than Jonathan Winters.
"Over the years that I enjoyed his comedy, I felt a personal connection with Jonathan Winters. I did some research and found out that he’d been a seagoing Marine aboard a battleship (USS Wisconsin) and an assault carrier (USS Bon Homme Richard) where he served as an anti-aircraft gunner in the battle for Okinawa and the assaults on mainland Japan. His service was honorable all the way and I read several interviews in which he reflected—with his usual comic take—on his service as a Marine. There was humor but there was also respect. Jonathan Winters was proud to have served and he knew that there are no ex-Marines."

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.
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)
