Tony & Tacky Ranger Rosaries: That's what the folks at St. Mary's High School in Annapolis, Md., are calling the rosary beads they are making for the troops in Iraq. EWTN reports that the beads -- designed by St. Mary's parishioner and National Guardsman Frank Ristaino and strung along olive-green parachute cord -- were first sent to soldiers deployed to Bosnia. They proved popular, and the Catholic chaplain for the 82nd Airborne recently asked the school to make more for his troops. "We're giving them hope," one of the students told the Annapolis daily newspaper The Capital. "They'll know God is watching over them while they serve our country."
