Default Tuesday Is Veterans Day

Please take a few minutes to Realize Freedom comes at a cost.
It took many men and womens lifes to get where we are right now.
Some of them have never been accounted for POW/MIA this Monday night before you go to bed hit your knees and say a Prayer for all of them.
Some of them are still suffering for us PTSD and bad night mares.
And lost limbs etc............

To All my Friends who were in the Military I want to say Thank You.


As my signature line states:

I Am a Very Proud United States American Sailor who has been in Combat.

A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.
