REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!

Sgt. Tanner S. Higgins, USA, 1st Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment, KIA Afghanistan 14apr2012



I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)

God Of Our Fathers



Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, among these who answered the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

[SkyDancer]

Hi All ...Well, Hmmmm ...

You Are Gold

You are almost universally admired. People strive to be like you.
You are also highly valued. Your friendship, approval, and advice are all considered priceless.

You live an inspiring, fortunate life. Not many people are as lucky as you are.
But you haven't gotten to where you are on luck alone. You are incredibly competitive and ambitious.

And Also, Let Us Not Foget Those Who Gave Us Our Freedom ...

[Kathy in Alaska]

And really close...AZ is second!!

G'day, Sky!

I could not complete the test, the choice of cities to live in was completely unacceptable to me.

What Metal Are You?

[2111USMC]

You Are Silver

You are a flexible person. Being open to opportunities in life has served you well.
You are very polished and sophisticated. You're probably in a higher class than you were born into.

You are naturally popular and quite influential. You are a bit of a trend starter among people you know.
And while you are well liked, you don't let it go to your head. You remain contemplative and wise.

What Metal Are You?

Me thinks not. Oh well.

[SoldierDad]

I selected the lesser of the evils!

LOL! Good evening, Red_Devil...I can’t see the test from work, but remember having the same issue when I put it together. I think I just skipped it. Very, very poor choices. I dragged out my iPad so I could see the test. Yucky places to live.

[mylife]

You Are Copper

You are provocative and challenging. You help people realize who they really are.
You live a very balanced life. You always take time for love and art.

You are both a powerful and generous person. You always have time to give back.
People find you to be incredibly ethical and loyal.

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...did you survive the new system?

Gonna work better for you?

Typical swamped Tuesday...but not too much homework tonight. Did a lot last night.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, AZ, and thanks for the red, white, and blue tribute. *HUGS*

Did you have a comfortable and safe commute? Any bunnies impeding your forward progress?

God rest the souls of all the fallen heroes!

[ConorMacNessa]

We had the training for the new software online this afternoon. Not very well done - it's amazing to me how unable some of these guys are at training. I've used so many of these systems now that they have all begun to assume a sameness. This one looks like it might be better than some we've used - the two systems we've been using on this project up to now are both horrible, so this should amount to an improvement.

2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)

Flowers of the Forest



Black Watch Piper

The Soldier

If I should die, think only this of me:
That there's some corner of a foreign field
That is forever England. There shall be
In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;
A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,
Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam;
A body of England's, breathing English air,
Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.
And think, this heart, all evil shed away,
A pulse in the eternal mind, no less
Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given;
Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day;
And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness,
In hearts at peace, under an English heaven.

Rupert Brooke
