Oh it sure does SAM!
Hey did I tell you what happened yesterday???
We had a very wild, wind storm! A huge pine tree in my back yard came crashing down. The wind cut the tree top off about 50 feet up the trunk. The tree landed on my yard furniture and crushed some of it. Had I been out there when this happened, I would not be here telling you of this today.
I am thankful for protection.

During WWII, the "real" generals for the most part didn't like "Special Forces". They felt that they were a waste of resources and manpower. Even the Airborne had to fight an uphill battle to get accepted. One problem with Special Forces in WWII was that the generals figured since they had them they'd use them, many times in roles they were not trained for.

Hi w-Over_w.
The recruits, ranging in age from seventeen to thirty-five, came from every part of the United States; they included a former lion tamer and a full-blooded Sioux Indian.
Only in America!
Is this a great Country or what!

To: Valin
LOL, I have an Evil Twin too. And he's always getting me blamed for the stuff he pulls.
Back when I was helping at a daycare as an aide, I had a "game" I played on the little kids. I'd pretend to be twins. I'd be in the class and then leave and come back. Only I'd be Steve's twin brother Sam looking for Steve. I'd keep coming in and out switching roles. The kids would try sooooooo hard to convince me that there was no Sam and I was only Steve, but you could always see the "maybe he is Sam" look on their faces. They'd laugh so hard cuz Sam was sort of a Doofus unlike the cool and collected Steve. Man I haven't thought about that in years. Thanks for the memories.

A fresh supply of flowers for my foxhole, that is a nice thought.
