Vanessa! Thank you so much for this! My dad was in the Army in WW2, he was on KP duty, but he was there in time of war! Now my uncle and my cousin are in the Army, my uncle Joe is only a recruiter for the Army, but my cousin Danny is in Iraq right now! He is an Army seargeant, on the front lines! I pray he makes it back to us I pray all who is over there does!

A Tribute to a Very Worthy Man ....
((((( <<<<< John Crawford >>>>> ))))) i just love this quote by Teddy Roosevelt and it reminds me too of my dearly beloved friend & brother John Crawford.. one very smoking dude an amazing Man, a good father, a loving husband to Joyce an excellent friend & brother to me and so many more... a Mountain Man who hiked much of the Pacific Crest trail... A man who fashioned & built many of the homes in the Oakland Hills before and after the big fire ... John was from Auburn , California and the San Francisco Bay Area... You passed from this life , as we know it on August 1st of 2001 at age 65 with your favorite glass of Johnny Walker Black in your hand John ... you were the one who turned me on to this quote... I will never forget You , Buddy!!! we had lots of fun...didn't we? The group bubble bath with clothes on, in the kids pool oh...how you loved Halloween and making the kids scream The many get togethers with friends in your home and in that " always open " garage ... All the family & friends , including the littlest of kids and the trademark gesture with the arm and all of us shouting "Doggies!!!...." Your Wedding high up in the mountains ... you were both so happy & excited that i arranged for Mountain Hawk and Harry Harpoon to play You & Joyce were always there for me.... thank you so much... You are still with me and will never ever be forgotten It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall Never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." Theodore Roosevelt "Citizenship in a Republic," Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910 ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Rest in Peace ! my Dear Man !..... I will see you again on the other side of this life |

That is a site with a lot of quotes geared towards Marines. I don't mean to slight any of the other branches of the military as all are equally important and respected. I went there for one quote in particular but I just couldn't bring myself to post just one and leave the others behind... As the Marines say and beleive... Leave no man behind... Always near...

Here's a quick Jewish Prayer for surviving danger:
Barukh ata Adonai Eloheinu melekh ha‑olam, ha‑gomel lahayavim tovot sheg'malani kol tov. Amen. Mi sheg'malkha (for a woman: sheg'malayikh) kol tov hu yigmalkha (yigmalayikh) kol tov. Selah. Blessed are You, LORD, our God, King of the Universe, who bestows good things on the unworthy, and has bestowed on me every goodness. Amen. He Who has bestowed on you every goodness, may He continue to bestow on you every goodness. Selah. Because we do have Jewish Soldiers too! But I am saying this for ALL the soldiers. |

Of course Dear Myriah My prayers go out to all of our Troops , < No Matter > What Faith They Have.... as long, as they are on the side of Goodness & the Light I try hard to embrace the things that unite us and tend to downplay the things that divide us... Hope all is going well with you, Myriah ... Love & Light & Strength from Above, to you |
