11th Hour of the 11th Day of the 11th Month.....

Today we honor our heroes.

In our society today we tend to minimize the sacrifices that were made for us by our best and brightest.

But lest we forget, there are generations of brave men who have answered the call of our country since it's founding who have made the ultimate sacrifice for God, Honor and Country.

I buried my uncle yesterday - right next to my father. They were both warriors who gave of themselves without a thought for life or limb - simply because it was what was required of them in their hearts.

As so many of our young men and women are still struggling in far off places - not because they want to, but because they are called to - I pause and say a prayer of thanks.

And would ask that each of you do the same.

Peace (may it come in our time)..........
