Dusty old helmet, rusty old gun,
They sit in the corner and wait –
Two souvenirs of the Second World War
That have withstood the time, and the hate.
Many times I've wanted to ask them –
And now that we're here all alone,
Relics all three of a long ago war –
Where has freedom gone?
Mute witness to a time of much trouble,
Where kill or be killed was the law –
Were these implements used with high honor?
What was the glory they saw?
Freedom flies in your heart like an eagle.
Let it soar with the winds high above
Among the spirits of soldiers now sleeping,
Guard it with care and with love.
I salute my old friends in the corner.
I agree with all they have said –
And if the moment of truth comes tomorrow,
I'll be free, or By God, I'll be dead!

Exactly.

Zapata was the real deal in the Mexican revolution of 1910. Unlike his contemporaries who simply wanted to be the next tyrant, Zapata wanted the land to go back to the original owners. He had another great quote as well, but I only all of that one in English:

Men of the south! It is better to die on your feet, than to live on your knees!

Even though these of course not from the American Revolution, I find them to be relevant to any age.

Had a fantastic time and the event made for a fine end to my first RBC.  Great bunch of shooters, great bunch of Instructors, and the range is outstanding! Looking forward to another Appleseed.

I use my Appleseed pic file as a screen saver and periodically, up comes a pic at the "home range" as we call it - Ramseur. I too have had some amazing times there. Surely wish I had such a range near me. Ramseur is unique in many ways. Looking forward to an IBC there this year! Huzaaah!
