Could have gone into the Military section, but I decided to put it here for more viewing.

Our generation shouldn’t allow today’s generation to forget what it took for every American to enjoy freedom

and liberty. Amazing accomplishment.

Notice the dog tags in the last photo.

Mt. Suribachi. Forward Observer's dream!...I don't think I've ever seen a picture from the top of the mountain looking down on the beach that way...damn the Jap's couldn't miss.

...and the WM taking pictures at the bottom of the dune has big feet. :-)
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
