     my bf was in the military 10yrs ago i have family that was or still is in the military i had a uncle that was in the korean war(he died 20yrs ago)   Ohhh...thanks for coming by   Dear Lady Queene   
  and for sharing  some of your beloved memories with us   
  It doesn't matter how long it was when someone we loved died   
      their memory will never ever be forgotten       
  My Daddy's only Brother died in a horrible Merchant Marine tragedy   
  the very very day that my 19 year old future Dad   
  was deploying with the Army from Newport News, Virginia to go to Italy   
      they called it The Second Pearl Harbor...      
http://www.bbc.co.uk/ww2peopleswar/stories/53/a2087453.shtml http://boards.history.com/topic/World-War-Ii/Disaster-At-Bari/520024844   The Port of Bari was closed for weeks after 17 of our ships   
  were bombed with tons & tons of mustard gas on board    
  i always heard of my beloved Uncle Louis Joseph   
  whom my only Brother was named after   
      and even though i never got to meet him     
for he died on December 2nd, 1943   way before i was born in 1953 
  but the stories i have heard keep him still alive to me   
  and i feel as if i have known & loved him all of my life   
  and i pass his story & memory on   to my Children & Grandchildren too

http://www.usa-patriotism.com/poems/tv/heroes_unsung-01.htm Heroes Unsung I just want our Troops to know that there are so many more of us here in the USA who proudly support you everyday regardless of what others might loudly say or even do that could cause you to wonder why and even make your loved ones cry. Each of you have our prayers too for a safe return to the USA from your valiant duty in harm's way once the mission is complete... and hopefully never from defeat. You are America's brave young, our heroes unsung, doing your very best in this most difficult test for each of us no matter the domestic fuss. By David G. Bancroft Founder USA Patriotism!

  God Is Nigh In the stillness of the night, As the moon spreads its silvery beams, A battle-weary soldier spills out his plight To the One who intervenes.   
Death has come to many a friend.   
The struggles try his soul.   
Will this war never end?   
It has certainly taken its toll.   
"Lord, guide my steps and keep us safe   
As the bullets start to fly.   
I'll trust you, Lord. Increase my faith;   
Oh, may it never die!"   
His prayer ended, he breathes a sigh He knows the night will be long. But he takes comfort, Knowing God is nigh,   
And patiently waits for dawn. By Christine Kidd <<< God Bless Our Troops >>>

      i love the quotes of Teddy Roosevelt ...  
  here is some timeless inspiration for our beloved Troops   
  when ignorant people   try to criticize   you falsely ,   
  remember this always and carry it   with you in your heart   
  my Dearly Beloved Brothers & Sisters in Arms   
http://www.theodoreroosevelt.org/life/quotes.htm "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."   
"Citizenship in a Republic," Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910   i never knew this was by Eleanor Roosevelt
