I LOVE This Picture

I found it Here

And this is the picture.  It is and will be (I predict) as Iconic as 4 men raising the flag (for the 2nd time) on Mount Suribachi, Iwo Jima.  Most especially if We make it so.

Frankly, I'm glad many WWII Veterans don't have to view today's events with the anti-American POS in the current section 8 white house.  Most especially my Dad.  He was pretty tired of the BS back in the 1980's.  I can't even imagine what he'd think today.





My Dad..... walked Italy, France and Germany as an Infantry Sergeant, came back whole, raised a family of 4, had a lot of fun doing it.  I miss ya Dad, but I'm glad* you're missing out on this crap.

I wonder if any of the WWII veterans being turned away at the WWII memorial are wondering why they bothered.  I would think some have to be.

    THAT is a powerful sentiment.....and I wonder the very same.

  2. I read on the web that some veterans are going to arrive in large numbers to the WW2 Memorial on Sunday. If that actually takes place, should be interesting!

  4. Your over view brought thoughts of my own father (4 years in the Pacific) and Uncle (pilot - P 38 and other planes) --
    My father -(business in Detroit) -
    warned us kids about giving other peoples' money to those who have children out of wedlock to get govt $$$ ==ADC-

    and to folks who will not work--

    The future he "saw" has come true--glad he is not here to actually "see" it--

  7. Our dads would never have stood for this BS and the pols knew it. The pols also know now that significant portions of the American electorate actually don't care as long as they get their hand out. We have reached the tipping point.
