Lindberg died Sunday at Fairview Southdale hospital in the Minneapolis
suburb of Edina, said John Pose, director of the Morris Nilsen Funeral Home

captured in the famous photograph by Abe Rosenthal, that raised the first
flag over the island.

Yes you can tell the warriors first hand how you think they are doing so when they hear the BS on the programs and newspapers, they can be reassured that those programs are as wrong as two boys sleeping together.

Murtha's Parade

Murtha A little bird told me that Sen Murtha was scheduled to have a small parade in his dedication yesterday. Unfortunately it was canceled due to heavy rain. The below memo was sent out but we don’t know if it had anything to do with it.

MEMORANDUM

FROM: The Almighty One
TO: Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines

SUBJ: WHICH MILITARY SERVICE IS THE BEST

1. Gentlemen, all branches of the United States Armed Forces are honorable and noble. Each serves America well, and with distinction. Being a Serviceman in the United States Military represents a special calling, which warrants special respect, tribute, and dedication.

2. Be proud of that.

Semper Fidelis
God, USMC (ret)
