Sorry I'm late and wasn't able to get this up yesterday (due to a 13+ hour trip home from a shoot), but I thought it would be better late than never. 
Our troops and families of these troops are truly a blessing from the Lord and should be thanked and honored at every opportunity, in addition to the one special Memorial day that we said aside annually for this.



"Father in Heaven, thank you for blessing our nation with young men who willingly go into harm's way to protect our way of life and bring freedom and peace to other nations.  Lord, heal the wounded, and give comfort to the families of those soldiers who won't return to their loved ones...ever.  In Jesus' name, Amen."


-Jay Langston
From the "Soldiers of Steel" article in May 2011 edition of Tactical Weapons



"Freedom is preserved by those who die for it, but it will not survive unless people are willing to live for it."
-Boba Fett (The RWVA Instructor, not the Star Wars Bounty Hunter)

'Yes, I am a Rifleman, but I'm also a Ninja....and a Jedi.'

"Integrity first, service before self, and excellence in all we do."

"Remember, my opinion on the totem pole of life is somewhere below whale s***..." -Chris Costa

"The more you care about something, the deeper the fight will come from within."  -Travis Haley

Amen.

That's all I have to say.

The doorway to freedom is framed by the muskets that stood between a vision of of liberty and absolute anarchy at a place called Concord Bridge--Charlton Heston, 1997

"Be a man of principle. Fight for what you believe in. Keep your word. Live with integrity. Be brave. Believe in something bigger than yourself. Serve your country. Teach. Mentor. Give something back to society. Lead from the front. Conquer your fears. Be a good friend. Be humble and be self-confident. Appreciate your friends and family. Be a leader and not a follower. Be valorous on the field of battle. And take responsibility for your actions. Never forget those that were killed. And never let rest those that killed them." -- Major Douglas Zembiec
