Default Words from Fleet Adm. William "Bull" Halsey

Regarding our terrorists enemies who view this great Free land as a altar of Satan- as Halsey said re: The Japanese after their terrorist attack on Pearl Harbor- "When we are finished with the little yellow RACSCALS (his exact wording changed) the only place their language will be spoken is in the bowels of Hades"--

Korea and the Vietnam conflicts and all the leftist piss-headed hippies that came from the 1960's have weakened our National resolve-we have a POTUS who never served day one telling Gen. Petraus (West Pointer and C.G. 101st AB) how to win a war, and liberal feminist Judges on the Supreme Court who have lived sheltered Ivy-leagued lives trying to disarm us- This of all times is the time that tries men's souls-

No greater blood bath existed than the War of Northern Aggression on our home soil, but we have lost countless brave men in Flanders Fields, Iwo Jima, Bastogne, Normandy, Algiers, Sicily, the cold depths of both major oceans hold some of our own in the Eternal Father's grasp-- Chosen Resevoir, Pork Chop Hill, Khe Sahn, Hue, and now unknown areas in the SandBox lands-- because we are a Free Nation- at a cost beyond all recognizion-- Semper Fi!

Thank you for your post Dave. This Memorial Day is particularly poignant for our family as my father's remains were laid to rest on Friday at Fort Indiantown Gap National Cemetary. I have three spent .308 casings from his interrment service that will always be a physical reminder of my father's service as a Marine.

Thank you again Dave

Marc,

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. The final hymn at church today was America The Beautiful. I tried to sing, but my lips quivered and I started to cry. All during the service I remembered those that we lost: friends, family, my war and the wars others fought. God bless you.

Harry
