Rest easy, sleep well my brothers.
Know the line has held, your job is done.
Rest easy, sleep well.
Others have taken up where you fell, the line has held.
Peace, peace, and farewell...
John 15:13
KJV
Amen
When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One's standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. ~Theodore Dalrymple

I loved visiting Arlington cemetery, but we went in the heat of summer. Winter gives that kind of solitude, a more somber solitude, of grief for our losses. But also pride in our sacrifices as a nation. Thanks Jan!
