It occurred to me that warrior heroes like Nate Hardy who have made the ultimate sacrifice there did not die for vainglory but for the principles of freedom. God Bless you Nate and thanks for your service. Like the souls of brave soldiers gone before us..."It is not for glory, nor riches nor honors that we fight but for freedom, that which we would give up but with our lives" (Declaration at Arbroath Abbey 1320).

He thoroughly loved his job and said if he had it all to do over again, he would choose the same profession. I never failed to thank him for his service to our beloved country and to pray for his safety. He's in God's arms now and can't ever be hurt again.

And I say that without being snarky. Kos just has a certain reputation, you know. It does show, however, that honorable people honorably oppose the war while honoring the warriors who safeguard our right to oppose or support anything we freely choose. It is altogether fitting and proper that these warriors should be remembered even for a short while. The names of all but a few warriors will be forgotten in time. The wars they fought, the causes and consequences of the those wars will be forgotten only to be replaced by future unknown warriors to fight future unknown wars all to be forgotten in a future past. It is good that war is hell, otherwise we should come to love it.

I noticed that too, but can't fix it right now. Off to work. Curt loves cleaning up my mess, anyway. It gives him something to do.
