Agent_Kilroy (OP) User ID: 79555820 United States 11/09/2020 05:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I appreciate so much your passion in what you have composed in your OP--I needed to read THAT. My hubby's grandfather swam through fire to survive the sinking at Pearl Harbor of the U.S.S. Arizona in WWII...My own father helped liberate the concentration camps in Europe in WWII and my uncle fought in horrific battles at Guadalcanal (but committed suicide from the extreme PTSD/Shell Shock suffered afterwards.) So my family (both sides) have been steeped in a personal "boots on the ground" knowledge of WHAT KEEPS THIS COUNTRY FREE. I'm sure my family's ancestors are "turning in their graves" to see what this country is enduring with this current election as well as the state of world itself. It is personal PASSION this thread's author is offering and I appreciate posts like his/hers in the face of what's happening in our GREAT COUNTRY. I will never lose faith in this country--and in her military--who have been through so much and sacrificed so selflessly for what freedoms we still enjoy. Thanks for the topic--5 STARS!! The Oracle's Cookie God bless you, and thank you for you kind words and make than anything thank you for sharing your family's story as well as your husband's Grandfather. I salute them. Those are the people we should never forget and never give up for. Be well, -Agent Kilroy Thank you Kilroy...Just wanted to be SURE you knew you have "hit a nerve" with many of us on GLP. Thanks for your thread and your wonderful words. "THOSE ALSO SERVE...WHO STAND AND WAIT." I WAIT for the truth to win out. The Oracle's Cookie Amen. There is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path. |
