He couldn't post it so he sent it to me to post.<br /><br />Don<br />.............................. <br /><br /><br />What is sad is how a watered down version of history and the revisionist influence of the progressives corrupt the younger generation; appreciation for the sacrifices our fallen soldiers made for us throughout history has become more of a political mouth peace and lip service more than actual sincerity. It saddens me more to hear how many "kids" below the ages of 25 have no idea about the major battles from the Civil War or what the war was actually fought over.<br /><br /> Anyway, I'll stop ranting. God bless our service people and let us all be grateful for the sacrifices they made so that we can enjoy the freedoms we often take for granted.<br /><br />JohnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
