Well ... in coming days, weeks, months and maybe years many of us will be called upon to show uncommon courage and dedication.
We've so many examples we can follow. Listen to this ... an excerpt from the Medal of of Honor Citation of Marine Sargent Mitchell Paige for action which occured October 26, 1942 in Guadalcanal:
"When the enemy broke through the line directly in front of his position, Platoon Sargent Paige, commanding a machine-gun section with fearless determination, continued to direct the fire of his gunners until all his men were either dead or injured.
Alone, against the deadly hail of Japanese shells, he fought his gun and when it was destroyed, never ceasing his withering fire against the advancing forces until reinforcements finally arrived.
Then, forming a new line, he dauntlessly and aggressively led a bayonet charge, driving the enemy back and preventing a break-though in our lines."
God BLESS America!!!
May we all be blessed with unwaivering determination to see this unsolicited war thru to the end. There is no other way.
Now is the time to let the hero in all of us shine through.
