My Dad enlisted in the Navy after Pearl Harbor at the age of 17 and served in submarines in the Pacific war. 50% of his shipmates in the sub fleet never made it home. He was one of the lucky ones and I am here by the grace of God. It sickens me that he fought and so many died to preserve the freedoms that we are now giving away without a fight.

I join in all of the above.
And, not to detract from the solemnity of the occasion, December 7 also happens to be the anniversary of another momentous event: The first date between NJCubScouter and she who later became Mrs. NJCubScouter. 34 years, yesterday. Which of course led to the inevitable "joke" that I long ago learned never, ever to repeat again, if I know what's good for me.
