At random: "Without courage, you might as well not be in it. You’ve got to have courage--moral courage, physical courage--and honor. Honor means telling the truth even when it might not be to your advantage" Retired Capt. Charles W. Rush Jr. (85), Navy Cross recipient, when asked to give advice to Chiefs and Junior Officers in today's submarine service.

Subject: Veterans Day

Yesterday was another terrific experience working with school kids. It was frustrating when a couple of my prime scheduled speakers had to cancel on short notice due to personal issues. However, it turned out to be a terrific day! We spent several hours with 325 students plus about 15 faculty & staff & some senior guests. A real "pump up" on patriotism just prior to Veterans Day weekend! I had an Army bird colonel paratrooper retired, 30 years (132 jumps worldwide) & a Vietnam vet teamed up with a female Chief Master Sargent active duty USAF 29 years that put on one heck of an act! Check out the slide show linked above.

BTW, my home PC crashed a few days ago (hardware failure) & in addtion to a bunch of stuff I lost some of your Email addresses. If'n you want to hear from me drop me a line: royator@lipan.net
I'm now learning MS Vista Home Premium~ ~ ~
Sure miss my old MS XP Pro that was solid for a long time!
