If no one teaches them about honor, why are we surprised when they act dishonorably?sig94https://www.blogger.com/profile/11460563552989533923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6921935853428237245.post-2147053186686363572011-05-30T07:22:35.575-04:002011-05-30T07:22:35.575-04:00CS - The stats are sobering.

Sad to say that in England we've seen an increase in vandalism to our war memorials in the past few years, not to mention abuse of our AF from certain quarters. When ordinary people are present they don't get away with it but govt & courts don't seem to be in synch with the people.GoodnightViennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15028146701684804650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6921935853428237245.post-49815954779392983042011-05-29T23:15:27.134-04:002011-05-29T23:15:27.134-04:00beautifully done- and thank you for the statistic ...beautifully done- and thank you for the statistic list---<br />Carol-CSchristian soldierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04781627688988991192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6921935853428237245.post-35042416121216704742011-05-29T23:09:05.436-04:002011-05-29T23:09:05.436-04:00Kid - if only we had another Ronald Reagan waiting...Kid - if only we had another Ronald Reagan waiting in the wings. <br /><br />But then again, perhaps we do...<br /><br />Time will tell.sig94https://www.blogger.com/profile/11460563552989533923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6921935853428237245.post-46958261622790862662011-05-29T23:07:48.093-04:002011-05-29T23:07:48.093-04:00Vicar - thank you.Vicar - thank you.sig94https://www.blogger.com/profile/11460563552989533923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6921935853428237245.post-84501226696601023322011-05-29T22:27:54.926-04:002011-05-29T22:27:54.926-04:00Beautiful stuff Sig.
Also, as Ronald Reagan said,...Beautiful stuff Sig.<br /><br />Also, as Ronald Reagan said, "Freedom is not passed down from one generation to the next through the blood stream. Freedom must be fought for and defended by each generation, otherwise you will be setting on your front porch in your old age, telling your children and your grand children what it was like to live in America, when men were free."<br /><br />Knowledge is not passed down either. In this way, animals actually have a leg up on humans. Humans are born dumb as rocks and couldn't possibly survive on their own.Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05287399775879832602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6921935853428237245.post-78805497476173342722011-05-29T22:17:06.566-04:002011-05-29T22:17:06.566-04:00God bless you, boy.

Unfortunately too many Americans think no further than the barbecue and beer cooler on Memorial Day. <br /><br />But perhaps things will change, the returning vets from our present conflicts will have a greater appreciation of our the meaning of words like "sacrifice", "patriotism", "honor", etc. All the words that have fallen into disrepute with many of our fellow contrymen. <br /><br />Maybe an unintended consequence of these times will be a rebirth of those values.<br /><br />We can hope.<br /><br />FWIW, I'll remember your daughter & her comrades in my prayers tonight.Subvethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13523683273450353313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6921935853428237245.post-57121502104509131032011-05-29T13:50:36.375-04:002011-05-29T13:50:36.375-04:00Thank you all.

They are aware of the tremendous support they enjoy back home. Once they return they too will become part of the remembrance. We remember the heroes who gave their life and limb. They remember their mates. A different sort of remembrance in intensity and experience perhaps, but a loving, faithful recollection that should never end.sig94https://www.blogger.com/profile/11460563552989533923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6921935853428237245.post-42083376117807741282011-05-29T13:40:22.888-04:002011-05-29T13:40:22.888-04:00Spot-on Sig and thanks for the post!Spot-on Sig and thanks for the post!Christopher - Conservative Perspectivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14102651466203156040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6921935853428237245.post-48701588027532903112011-05-29T13:13:39.981-04:002011-05-29T13:13:39.981-04:00Excellent post.
