It’s that time of year when we publically honor our fallen comrades, then we go back for another year of quiet reflection on our loyal comrades and family members who are no longer with us.  We trust that you will enjoy these two uplifting videos on Memorial Day Weekend; the first video is of the US Marine Corps Band with bagpipes, the second video is a bagpipe rendition of Amazing Grace in memory of our fallen comrades.

My thoughts often go back to my Naval Academy classmates like Col John Ripley, USMC, a true American Patriot, and other shipmates who gave their last full measure of devotion, in far off lands, they did so to defend our liberties and freedoms. We will stay true to their selfless service, and will not allow the domestic enemies of our Judeo-Christian heritage to take precious liberties and freedoms from us, freedoms and liberties that our fellow Americans died to preserve for us.
