PLEDGE OF
ALLEGIANCE
I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United
States of America, and to the Republic, for which it
stands; one nation, under God, indivisible, with
liberty and justice for all. |

A Veteran
- whether active duty, retired, national guard
or reserve--
is someone who, at one point in his or her life,
wrote a blank check made payable to "The
United States of America",
for an amount of "up
to and including their life".
That is Honor, and it seems there are way too many people in
this country who no longer understand that
simple fact.

A Thought to live with:
"It is the soldier, not the reporter who has
given us the freedom of the press. It is the
soldier, not the poet, who has given us the
freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not
the campus organizer, who gives us the
freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier
who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the
flag, and whose coffin is draped by the
flag, who allows the protester to burn the
flag."
Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, Sergeant, USMC

For our
soldiers
"Lord,
hold our troops in your loving hands.
Protect them as they protect us.
Bless them and their families for the selfless
acts they perform
for us in our time of need.
I ask this in the name of Jesus, our Lord and
Savior.
Amen
