Veterans Day

11/10/2019

0 Comments

 
This Veterans Day take time to reflect on the sacrifices made by men and women across the world who have served in the cause of freedom. Not only our own service men and women but those of our allies and all who gave time and lives to protect our liberty. It has become cliche', but freedom is not free. There are those in our own government and neighborhoods, who would deny us our Constitutionally guaranteed freedoms. May our enemies, foreign and domestic, be rooted out and  eradicated, so that liberty washes once again across our land. God Bless America.

Next time you see a veteran thank him for his service and mean it. Remember that they have been away from their families so that you can be at home safely with yours.

People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf.   George Orwell

Thank God these "Rough Men" are ours. God bless them.

    You can find out more about me on the "Stories" pages. My hobbies have included training in Japanese martial arts, including Kenjutsu, many forms of knife fighting, long range rifles and tactical firearms. I have written several self published books on muzzle-loading firearms, knife-fighting and textbooks on gas engines and compressors. I am working diligently on my 400+ page F-S book.
