As a 7-year-old, Richard Bernstein admired Jackie Robinsons athletic ability and courage as the first African-American man to play Major League baseball in the modern era. A few years later, while working at a small-town golf course, Bernstein was astonished to find himself carrying the bag of his hero, Jackie Robinson. When rain postponed the game, Robinson held an umbrella over the two of them and shared his chocolate bar with the young caddy. Writing in The International Herald Tribune, Bernstein cited that humble act of kindness as a mark of greatness he has never forgotten.
True greatness is shown by humility, not pride. This was powerfully demonstrated and taught by Jesus Christ, who told His ambitious disciples: Whoever desires to become great among you, let him be your servant. And whoever desires to be first among you, let him be your slavejust as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many (Matt. 20:26-28).
When God Himself walked on earth as a man, He washed feet, welcomed children, and willingly gave His life to deliver us from the self-centered tyranny of sin. His example gives credence to His command.
Yeah....your here early!
An early shift for you today? *Hugs*
I think all of tonights pics were taken at the Duxford Air Show back in 2007. So on with the pics...
We lead off tonights Flyby with a head on picture of two of the three mainstays of Grumman's WW-II aircraft, the F4F Wildcat and the F6F Hellcat.
Next up the 'Cats in flight with the Hellcat in the top position.
The Wildcat and Hellcat are joined in this picture by an F8F Bearcat. The Bearcat just missed seeing service in WW-II.
Another picture of the F4F, the F6F and the F8F jockeying for position for the photographers.
Okay looks like the three 'Cats have gotten lined up!
And to round out tonight s Flyby we bring in all four of the Grumman WW-II Cats for a final Flyby salute. Left to right we have the F6F Hellcat, the F7F Tigercat, the F8F Bearcat and the F4F Wildcat. Wouldn't be great to hear the sound of the 4 Pratt & Whitney R-2800 engines and the P & W R-1830 flying overhead :-)
Well we hope everyone has a great weekend out there, stay safe and with a wee bit of luck we will be back tomorrow night with the Saturday Sortie.
