Thank you. It's nice to be able to do something for these good folks, even if it's just a word of encouragement.

You are so right friend. You leave here a normal happy tough guy kid. Then you see things, but you endure, because your gonna go home in 11,.. so you endure,... see lots more things that are WAY out of the norm, like dead people all the time, or you had to kill someone,(things that you didn't do in America),..but you endure. Its finally over and the thoughts of coming home to people who love you, people you fought for by being in the US Military. You come home needing some nurturing, and get called names, baby killers, spit on. All the time your mind if still reeling from things to grotesque to even talk about, or if you did start to talk about it, you just KNOW you will sink and keep on sinking and then start crying, and never stop crying, you feel you will lose it.

Your right friend. Never again. We must support them when they go,..and welcome them home. It is the right thing to do.

Today at Shays Stadium, I saw people with Babies out there doing a day of prayer for hero's lost, and hero's about to go off to war. They had their babies, because they realize we cannot live in fear. That isn't the way we live here.

I want them/our Troops to know they have my love, our love. And yes, we will be doing rally's from this part of the world. I'll send pics once we start to do things.I'm doing some checking in on the security aspect of it all, pays to know people. We will get it done, but it will be done right.

I won't give these cowardly terrorists the chance to ruin my life, or make me afraid. What they did is so UNhonorable, that it is akin to stabbing someone in the back. To beating up a woman who uses a wheelchair. Brave? NOT!! We showed them brave already,.. the Firefighters, the policmen/women, the rescue personell, the port police. Passangers on a plane. All hero's. All took first place in line in Heaven. And when the hijackers finally got a word with Allah, I don't think they "left" happy. Eternity is such a very long time :o)

So to let thier actions make us all afraid, just makes their act of terrorism go on and on and on.... infinite!!

But I can assure you, these guys will have a sending off!!! I've co-ordinated these things before. On a VERY large scale. So it will happen. Because they deserve it. We need to punp up that spirit, let them know how proud of them we are, tell them we are so thankful to have intelligent, strong men and woman taking care of our country.

I wish I'd known you then Tonkin. I would have given you the hero's welcome you deserved!!! ~~Salute~~

When the troops left from Alaska to go to Desert Storm, we had a great rally for them. The troops who had already left, got to see it in the papers over there that their folks sent them. They said they heard it on tv too. It made them feel good. They knew we loved them and cared. They said it blew them away!! They weren't expecting it.

A little off subject, but in Sacramento California, there were hundreds of people on over passes as Firefighters and policemen came home from New York this weekend. We have to do this type of thing, ,and even if our troops aren't there, the families will be. The media will be!! We can make it a rally, picnic for the families. We will keep the firelight burning until they get home. We love them. We honor their service.

So many of us in talking to the young troops, are hearing over and over again, That they Love President Bush, that he knows what he is doing. I'm so glad they feel that way,.. it is so important. It's as when you see a Doctor, and your gonna have to have a surgery,.. it is much better to have total faith in your Doctor. Thats why it does my heart good to know they have total faith in their Commander in Chief!! Espre d' Cour' ;o)

I'm flying the flag from the Desert Storm rally in Alaska at my home for now. I'm sure it will be flying for "One Noble Eagle". (I hope they keep that name, as I like it)~~~ ONE~~~~ But whatever the name, it will be flown!!!

God Bless you friend!

I had sent several letters through SOS's service and just noticed on their site that yesterday, Oct 24th, they were asked to stop mailing letters to soldiers due to recent events. Let's all hope this all clears up soon so the soldiers aren't floating out there "alone."
