Support those who defend and strengthen a citizen's right to legitimate self defense.
"It is
dangerous for men in power if no one dares to tell them when
they go wrong.”
St. Thomas Becket (1118-1170)
Civil
and Canon Lawyer, Soldier/Officer, Archbishop of Canterbury,
Martyr (murdered by king's supporters); Patron Saint of
Clergy, Secular Clergy
"When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle."
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
Edmund Burke (1729-1797) Statesman and Author
“The untruthful soldier trifles with the lives of his
countrymen and the honor and safety of his country.”
Gen Douglas MacArthur (1880-1964)
Five-star General of the US Army
'Stand firm and immovable as an anvil when it is beaten
upon.'
St. Ignatius of Loyola
(1491-1556) Founder of the Jesuits, Patron Saint of Soldiers
"Of
all the dispositions and habits which lead to political
prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable
supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of
patriotism, who should labor to subvert these great pillars
of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men
and citizens. The mere politician, equally with the pious
man, ought to respect and to cherish them. A volume could
not trace all their connections with private and public
felicity. Let it simply be asked: Where is the security for
property, for reputation, for life, if the sense of
religious obligation desert the oaths which are the
instruments of investigation in courts of justice ? And let
us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be
maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the
influence of refined education on minds of peculiar
structure, reason and experience both forbid us to expect
that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious
principle."
President George Washington -
Farewell Address - Commander of the
Continental Army, First President of the U.S., Anglican
Christian, Early Emancipator (In his Will, he freed
all slaves ... persons "inherited" by his wife, Martha.)
"There
is only one kind of failure I cannot tolerate: the failure
to risk failure."
Richard Marcinko - Retired US Navy Seal
Commander, First Commander of Seal Team 6
“You can assign a man to a leadership
position, but no one will ever really be a leader until his
appointment is
ratified in the hearts and minds of his soldiers. ... An
honest–to–God, soul searching,
self–evaluation is in order—and very difficult to do. I
think this is the first vital step as one goes about the
business of becoming a better leader. ”
Gen William J. Livsey - US Army Commander
Retirement (July 2023)
After about four decades of faithful service to
our country, and to the disciplined training of effective
warriors (mostly in the AH64), I now enter retirement. It has
been an honor to serve.
We (GInny and I) now enter into the next chapter
of our life together - one of new projects and pursuits of
excellence.
