Quotable: Rough Men and Safe Sleep

“We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.”

- Sir Winston Churchill

When I heard that Osama had been killed by our special forces combined units, I rejoiced. God has given us a civil magistrate to deal with evil and they decided to put a wanted poster out on Bin Laden. I know that a lot of our military would not do such a mission but it seems like they all did. Maybe it seems that way to me as I was married to a Vietnam veteran. My ex husband had problems before the war, but they were increased when he came back to a country that on the surface was anti military in a big way. Now we have other avenues of information and the silent marjority is hopping mad. The left has gotten an earful. I support groups that send things to the troops that they want or need. If you can look some of them up and participate, it would help. Our military gives their all for us so we can sleep at night. My ex husband died Feb. 1998 from end stage liver disease not alcohol related. It is a possibility it was from agent orange, the defoliating agent used in Vietnam. I know people are remembering the troops in their prayers.
