I want to thank all veterans that served and protected us. GOD Bless you all.

So many gave there lives to defend our freedom for which its still stands, And we still this day fight for the freedom of our Nation and for rights of people across this earth.

I want to ask all that reads this, Say a prayer to those that are serving now, so that they can come home safe.

GOD BLESS

Amen to that. May they keep their heads down and may they shoot straight when they have to. But most of all, come home safe to family and friends.

God Bless

May god bless all of the men & women serving in our armed forces and bless those who have given thier lives for our country.

And comfort those families & friends who have lost a loved one.

And we will continue to pray for the safe return on all of our troops serving on active duty and for those who will be called to serve.

Semper Fi!

Memorial Day is a day of remembrance for those who have died in our nation's service.

While I admire, respect, honor, and appreciate the service of all of our veterans, let's not confuse this most solemn occasion with Veteran's Day.

We tend to only consider the words in the first verse of "America the Beautiful." On Memorial Day, I think it's appropriate to recall Katherine Bate's third verse to that wonderful song:

"O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife.
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness
And every gain divine!"

My passionate thanks to all our heros who are now serving or have served; deepest respect and honor to those who've made the ultimate sacrifice; heartfelt sorrow for the families who have lost their beloved patriots.

And for those serving in foreign lands, a hope that you'll soon return to this magnificent free land that you are defending.

I'm so fortunate to be an American!

Bob

Fly the Flag at half staff until noon, and then fly it high.
