Showcasing America's finest, and those who betray them!

Veterans for Constitution Restoration is a non-profit, non-partisan educational and grassroots activist organization. The primary area of concern to all VetsCoR members is that our national and local educational systems fall short in teaching students and all American citizens the history and underlying principles on which our Constitutional republic-based system of self-government was founded. VetsCoR members are also very concerned that the Federal government long ago over-stepped its limited authority as clearly specified in the United States Constitution, as well as the Founding Fathers' supporting letters, essays, and other public documents.

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

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.

I bet 2.SS-Panzer-Division Das Reich brings back memories of Frülingserwachen, the Lake Balaton Offensive. Waste of good troops.

Notice, everybody, that American troops did just fine up against the enemy's very best. That night fight in Langanke's story is as fierce a thing I can recollect, up there with Edson's Ridge at Guadalcanal. No night vision in those days. Lots of guts.

Sam,
This is interesting, but hard for me to read without crying. My father was at Normandy, and when he came home, he had what was then called "Shell Shock". My mother told of the time she and my uncle picked him up at the rail station, and he got into the back seat. They hadn't gone too far when a plane went over-head. Mom said my father went to pieces, got on the floor, and covered his head. They drove him straight to the hospital instead of going home. What those poor men went through.
