Is that cannon pictured the 155 `Long Tom’ on the hill that you see driving to Ft. Riley from Manhattan?
We always heard it was made to fire `atomic’ shells.

In my years in the Field Artillery, 175mm, 8” and I believe 155mm all had Nuc shells in their inventory.

Who Will Tell Them?
August 9, 2016
Our Savior . . . has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.
2 Timothy 1:10
World War II had ended. Peace had been declared. But young Lieutenant Hiroo Onoda of the Japanese Imperial Army, stationed on an island in the Philippines, didnt know the war had ended. Attempts were made to track him down. Leaflets were dropped over his location, telling him the war was over. But Onoda, whose last order in 1945 was to stay and fight, dismissed these attempts and leaflets as trickery or propaganda from the enemy. He did not surrender until March 1974nearly 30 years after the war had endedwhen his former commanding officer traveled from Japan to the Philippines, rescinded his original order, and officially relieved Onoda of duty. Onoda finally believed the war was over.
When it comes to the good news about Jesus Christ, many still havent heard or dont believe that He has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel (2 Tim. 1:10). And some of us who have heard and believed still live defeated lives, trying to survive on our own in the jungle of life.
Someone needs to tell them the glorious news of Christs victory over sin and death. Initially, they may respond with skepticism or doubt, but take heart. Imagine the freedom theyll find when Christ illumines their mind with the knowledge that the battle has been won.
Lord, help me to keep an open heart to listen to others and to share about what You have done.
Will you tell someone the good news today?
When we hear the word ministry we often associate it with a vocation or certain church-related activities that we perform individuallymy ministry is this or that. But Paul is telling the church at Corinth that they all have the same ministry: through Gods mercy we have this ministry (2 Cor. 4:1). So what is this universal ministry Paul is calling the church to? The Greek word translated ministry in this passage is commonly rendered waiting at tables. Paul is talking about service. All Christians are called to a lifestyle of service that witnesses to and communicates the good news of Jesus.

Camp Funston is still there. I was just there over the weekend. Fort Riley has grown over the years. You might not recognize it.
