Very good essay Jwfiv.

You are right about the majority of the people of the world seeing only our Golden Arches, MTV, Hollywood and soap opera news. They don't see the liberty and the sacrifices made for that liberty and the true desire of our people to see the rest of the world to enjoy that same freedom. We are more than what the rest of world sees outwardly and you have distilled that into a solid essay.

I'm glad to see you again this morning and really look forward to your next regular contributions to the Finest. Know your sons are constantly on your mind - both yours and your wife's. We continue to pray for all our men and women in harm's way, but can't help being particularly protective of loved ones of all of ours.
