Thank you for serving our country.

Good morning Billie. Haven't had my coffee yet, but dropping by to say hello, and thanks for adding more of our heroes to the thread.

Pass the very strong coffee, it is early in California!

Thank you Billie. Mrs. Temple Owl was pleasantly surprised to see her picture on the FreeRepublic. Luv ya.

A finer group I've never seen. Service members have a special place in my heart. Thank you for your service, and the service of your families. My older sister is retired Army, and I'd like to thank her to, if I could. Men and women like these have put their lives on hold, and on the line so we can have freedom.

Last Sunday as I sat in church listening to a wonderful sermon I tried to imagine the horror of having 1 or 2 maniacs storming the service with machine guns. That happens in so many places. At almost the same time I was musing we were asked to pray for our military who were fighting against evil in our stead. That was good for a hearty AMEN!

Good morning, Billie!

   
These are the times that try men’s souls.
The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will,
in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country;
but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.
~Thomas Paine
