Actively seeking volunteers to provide this valuable service to Veterans and their families.

Thanks to quietolong for providing this link.

We here at Blue Stars For A Safe Return are working hard to honor all of our military, past and present, and their families. Inlcuding the veterans, and POW/MIA's. I feel that not enough is done to recognize the past efforts of the veterans, and remember those who have never been found.

I realized that our Veterans have no "official" seal, so we created one as part of that recognition. To see what it looks like and the Star that we have dedicated to you, the Veteran, please check out our site.

Cobwebs

Read:
Romans 10:11-17

How shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard. -Romans 10:14

Bible In One Year: 1 Samuel 29-31

The story is told of a painter who was commissioned to portray a run-down church. But instead of an old, tottering ruin, he painted a magnificent edifice of modern design. Through the windows could be seen an ornate collection box for the gifts of the fashionable worshipers. Above it hung a sign bearing the inscription "For Missions." Sadly, the box was covered in cobwebs.

The church or the individual whose heart and life is not involved in the worldwide proclamation of the gospel is on the way to ruin. We may be engaged in feverish "Christian activity," but our energies are misdirected if the main thrust of God's program for this age goes unattended.

God has so designed His plan of world evangelization that every believer is to be vitally involved. We all should "pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest" (Matthew 9:38).

Some will also hear His personal call to be preachers-otherwise, "how shall they hear?" (Romans 10:14).

Still others will be givers and senders, for "how shall they preach unless they are sent?" (v.15).

Let there be no cobwebs over the cause of world missions because of our lack of concern. -Paul Van Gorder

Lord of harvest, send forth reapers,
Hear us, Lord, to Thee we cry;
Send them now the sheaves to gather,
Ere the harvest time pass by. -Thompson

Untold millions are perishing-untold.

The dustoff, however, did not come cheap. First, it involved a heavy cost in rear-echelon personnel, as well as some long-term cash payouts. More convalescents in the hospital, surviving for longer, meant that more doctors and nurses were needed to look after them, after which more veterans' pensions had to be found. It is a sad fact that the average wounded soldier costs the taxpayer many more dollars than a soldier killed in action, however differently we may rate the psychic or moral costs.

IMHO, it's cheap at any price. We, as a country, owe it to the young people it sends to war.

Morning Glory Folks~

Excellent read on MedVacs . . . all this time I somehow missed the term "Dustup".

Those two goals, however, often turned out to be incompatible, because rescuing one's own wounded of-ten meant that the battle against the enemy had to be broken off at a critical time, or diverted into an unplanned direction.

No thanks to Lyndon Johnson and MacNamara for the sacrificial way they mismanaged our boys and hamstrung our commanders.

GOD BLESS OUR BRAVE 'NAM VETS

Good afternoon. Looks like it will be a bright sunny day here in Memphis. It was cool when I went to Sunday School and church, but had warmed up quite a bit when I came out.

Excellent read snippy! Very informative and educational as well. I always believed those helo crews had very large brass ones, and this article confirms it.

Thanks and .............................

Cheers!
