BACK TO SCHOOL By Naval Support Activity Chapel Staff A child came home from his first day of school. His mother asked, “What did you learn today?” He said, “Not enough. I have to go back tomorrow”.
Going back to school is always difficult for both teachers and students. It also means more traffic with school buses back on the road; probably the only ones delighted about schools reopening are the parents. Going back to school can be a milestone. Kindergarten, sixth grade, high school and college are all significant marks of progress and change (especially when the kid finally gets a job!). For parents, these can be good times to reflect -- and perhaps to set new goals. It is good to reflect on memories of your kids growing up, and how proud you are of who they are becoming. It is also important to understand what they will need next as they grow and develop. An important goal is not only to ensure that they learn reading, writing and arithmetic, but also that they learn about God as well. The Bible tells us to train and teach our children in the ways of God (Proverbs 22:6 and Ephesians 6:4). One great way to do this is to take them to church. Chaplain Rob Beede, NSA Mid-South Command Chaplain

The Nazi Surrender of Fortress Cherbourg (Where It Happened!!!) History Traveler Episode 295
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_Mec-Y6XUw
The American 7th Corps defeat of the German army in Cherbourg was a major development for the Allied in late June of 1944. ... we’re going to the exact spot where Gen. Joe Collins accepted the surrender of the German forces in Cherbourg who were under the command of Gen. Karl-Wilhelm von Schlieben. Definitely a place that not many people have seen.
To: ExTexasRedhead
That is quite some song....all the things we have lost. *sigh*
Thanks!!!
