“It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us; that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion”
“We come not to mourn our dead soldiers, but to praise them.”
“The Patriot’s blood, is the seed of freedom’s tree.”
Thanks are just never enough.
Thank you John, for your service and for this devotional.
Since you've done a much better memorial than I could, tomorrow, if it's okay, I'll link this to my post.
I still remember my father talking about WWII, and though I was young, it wasn't far from him or his friends that fought the Germans and the Japanese; one of my father's friends had a samurai-sword; he mentioned that there was unspeakable crimes done by the Japanese against prisoners.
I had friends die in Viet Nam, and from one war to another, our soldiers are our heroes. I thank everyone!
Dennis, you can link whatever you want.
