“The liberties of our country, the freedom of our civil Constitution, are worth defending at all hazards; and it is our duty to defend them against all attacks. We have received them as a fair inheritance from our worthy ancestors: they purchased them for us with toil and danger and expense of treasure and blood, and transmitted them to us with care and diligence. It will bring an everlasting mark of infamy on the present generation, enlightened as it is, if we should suffer them to be wrested from us by violence without a struggle, or to be cheated out of them by the artifices of false and designing men.” Samuel Adams

Memorial Day (Decoration Day), May 27th, 2013

On Monday, May 27th, we honor those who died in the service of their country. More than 43 million American Patriots have made the ultimate sacrifice to protect Liberty, both here and elsewhere in the world. (http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0004615.html) One percent or less of Americans at any one time serve their country in the Armed Forces. Just one-half of 1 percent of Americans served in uniform at any given time during the past decade -- the longest period of sustained conflict in the country’s history. Please take time this weekend to remember the fallen and thank those who have served in uniform for both their service and sacrifices. Remember, too, to say a prayer for both those currently in the military and their families. Our Liberty is in their protection. In honor of the fallen, fly the U.S. Flag at Half Staff from Sunrise Until Noon on Monday 5/27/13 for Memorial Day. God Bless those who are serving and have served. 

Stand strong, Patriots! No Compromise, No Surrender!
