Wow. Thanks for sharing that. It choked me up a bit. To know how weary they were back then. To know some gave up others were badly beaten down and lost limbs. I mean I KNOW it, but I don’t know it if that makes sense. I probably read this in school somewhere (back when they taught history) but had forgotten it. Thanks for the boost. I hope anybody that comes across this takes 10 min and reads it. It should be required reading.

If we don’t know where we came from…we won’t know where we are going.

If we can’t appreciate how we became a free country, we’ll lay down and freely give up that freedom for something else.

If we don’t understand the sacrifices made for us, we will be unwilling to make those sacrifices for ourselves and others.
