The Eleventh Hour of the Eleventh Month of the Eleventh Day

For Bill Freerks, Mike Scott, Sal Grigola, Fred Tiemens, Charlie Johnson, Ken Nichols, Peter Solber, Kurn Kruger, and Ked Fairbank -- my heroic friends who went to war and came back.

And for Sandy Kempner, who didn't.

Thank you.

 

Quote from Patrick at Patrick's Place: 

"I hope we never take the sacrifices of the soldiers for granted as easily as we do the liberties they won for us."

Amen.
