Memoriam: 2010

Remembering soldiers both living and gone... those who fell during the fight and those that made it through.

To George H Lang (brother fallen in the Civil War), John Fulton and Elisha Goodrich (family survivors of America's revolution), Jack Houghton Green (great-grandpa, WWII), Robert Durkee (grandpa, WWII), Ernest William Green (grandpa, veteran of Korean War), Kevin & Miriam (heli mechanic and Army wife, currently in Afganistan), "Skippy" (US Army, currently in Iraq), Ken Roberts (US Marines, KIA October 2008) and "Zed" (PC, currently in Iraq).

Some day there will be no need for warriors.

Williams who served on DD-877 in Vietnam, Bailey who served in the Army near Chu Lai in Vietnam, Willy, who flew P-51s in WWII, F-86s in Korea, and Air America supply planes in Vietnam, Schneider who served in UDT 9 in the Phillipines during WWII, B. Bailey who served in Iraq, SgtMaj. Evans who served in Vietnam, MSgt. Carter who served in Somalia, Iraq, and Afghanistan. Thanks to all for your service.

you know, most times we gloss over memorial day as just a time to have picnics and wave flags. I really appretiate you guys bringing our focus back to the real reason for today.

To Harvey Robinson, OSS agent through the entirety of WWII but shortly after died of complications through from the stress of the job, and to all men and women who have made sacrifices for the freedom of our country.

To all American Soldiers (or allies of our country) previously and currently fighting in any war to defend our country and freedom. Now off to the range to shoot left handed!
