Major General, US Army Retired

 

5/30/10

As you picnic, camp, fish, or nap on this holiday weekend, please pause for a moment of silence at 3:00pm EDT to remember Timpson's and our nations's brave young men and women who have died in defense of our American freedom.  Those liberties have not come without immense cost.

It does no good to dream of what might have been accomplished had they lived--all that lost talent and treasure.  Yes, each of them was a son, daughter, mother, father, brother, sister, uncle, aunt, friend, or lover.  We miss them dearly.  And, will never forget their laughter, tears and friendship.

Reflect on their smile.  Never again will it be seen except in our fondest memories--painful memories, but necessary.  The fun times and good deeds are in our hearts.  Your momentary pause is a small recognition that you realize their sacrifice and will remember forever.  I am sure that's their simple request

I am a Warrior,
I fight not for glory or fame,
For they are momentary.
I fight for who can't.
I fight for Justice.
I fight for the oppressed and down trodden.
And if I should lose my life for thes just causes,
Then I have no regrets for I serve to protect the innocent.
It matters not where or when,
For evil and danger know no boundaries.
Be it fire,flood, or the threat of tyranny,
I will not flee.
Justice is my weapon,
Faith my shield,
And Hope my armor.
Cry not at my passing,
For it was my Honor to fight for you.
Shed not tears of sorrow but tears of Joy,
For now,,I stand with God.

In Loving Memory and Honor of the Men and Women of
the Armed Forces, Law Enforcement, Firefighters, EMS, and Coast Guard.

 All gave some, Some gave all.
Two iconic photographs taken decades apart, yet so hauntingly similar.
