<p>Whatever your views on the current conflict- take a moment to think about the men and women who are risking their lives, and for the men and women who have served/died in past wars.

<p>I never supported this war- but one of Ds friends who is a Marine injured by an IED which killed his CO, argues that we ahve to finish ( whatever that means)-
Im sure most of us know someone who has served in past or present wars- please take the time to thank them for their commitment.</p>

<p>I appreciate the courage of women and men in uniform and their dedication to this country. I would hope that we will learn to honor them by using this dedication judiciously. Let us pray for peace.</p>

<p>I just watched “Foreign Correspondent”- yesterday- a Hitchcock film I had never seen before- made in 1940.
Boy the world seemed different then-
My dad apparently had an eye injury that wouldn’t allow him to serve- otherwise I think he ws more of the age to serve in Korea.
One of my friends- had a dad that served in WWI in Britain high up in the navy- It took me a while to realize he really meant WWI not II</p>
