Thanks Aura. He's doing better.

[Aura Of The Blade]

So many of these young soldiers, like Hess, gave so much and asked for so little in return.

Many of these kids today are selfish and totally clueless, as to the price that has been paid while they play their computer war games.

[SAMWolf]

Unfortuantely too true.

I can't beleive the reactions of some people even after 9/11. All this we need to "understand them" crap I hear. And it's not just coming fromn young people.

[PhilDragoo]

Excellent account of and by Richard Hess.

Moving narrative of Corregidor as well.

Time and again the extraordinary courage of the American fighting man has triumphed over superior forces of fanatic foes.

Speaking of fanatics, Uday Hussein was in Pyongyang with Kim Jong Il. Asked about his presence, he laughed, "What do you think I'm doing here?"

God Bless Our Troops, Our Veterans and their Families.

Godspeed Swift Victory and Safe Return to the Finest Fighting Force on Earth.

[SAMWolf]

Good Evening, PhilDragoo.

Always good to read your commentary.

[E.G.C.]

BTTT!!!!!

[Treebeard]

That's him. I didn't know that was on the web though. I have quite a bit of stuff on him, ie, discharge papers, service records, etc.

Thanks for posting that.

REMOVE.

No offense, I just don't read as much on FR as I used to!!!

[fromnovascotia]

This is great. I remember hearing about Corregidor but its good to have al these pics and sources.

I wonder if this collection could be one day publishable.

Sam.... what a great tribute and excellent feature to look forward to each week.  I've been away for a few days, trying to figure out how to do an even better job on advocating for vet's and their issues.  Here's one way ... just launched today and shred with Freeper Foxhole first.  ping to whomever you feel might be interested.

Dear Freeper Foxhole friends, Free Republic Network chapter leaders and frontline Freeper fighters and property rights activists:

• If Pinging or Bumping just isn't enough... 
• if a burning issue is like a burr in under your saddle...
• if you don't like smut or wackos with your current voice chat application....

Stop in for a Bunker Moment. Our mission is simple... support our Freeper friends and destroy the enemy. Restore the our Bill of Rights from those who would strip us of them.

For a clearly superior Voice Chat application, give it a try tonight, especially during Mark's Night Talk Live. The password for tonight will be:  freedom

This is a private venue with limited seating!  Real first names or a verifiable Freeper handle are REQUIRED. You are welcome to use the room any time for family oriented, grassroots Freeper conservative discussions.  Chat room Moderators will be present in PrimeTime hours (7 to 10 p.m.) and will sit in from time to time in off-peak hours. Keep in mind, we may have to cycle visitors from time to time to make room for new visitors. Lurkers are welcome if there's ample room or a program in progress.

I will be extending an invitation to some of our Free Republic friends in hopes of stimulating constructive dialogue. A key mission in this project is to support our good friend Mark William at KFBK and his new MSN Group at MarkTalk.com If you haven't joined his forum, please do.  Be sure to check out Roger's Rant and the other great discussions.  Mark as been a loyal friend to Free Republic and our issues.

As always, our primary focus remains our nation's veterans, military personnel and those who feed America; the endangered ranchers and farmers of America.  We will be a small group at first and grow as the will to make a difference translates into ACTION.  Out there in Freeperland are bright ideas, solutions and the resolve to see them through.

Thanks comwatch. Mind if I post this at the foxhole the next few days days?

[PatriotGames]

I have not received Foxhole emails for the last couple of days. Have you forgotten about me?
