DEDICATED TO THE WARRIORS
OF FREEDOM

The Warriors of Freedom come from all cultures, all colors, all creeds, all different beliefs, but one in the circle of life and most important they are AMERICANS! They left their homeland to fight for the freedom we all know today.  Sadly freedom taken so lightly by many and abused by some.

"Greater Love hath no man than this,
 that a man lay down his life for his friends"
(John 15:13)

Millions of them paid the ultimate price, their life's blood. They did not come back home. Many are buried at sea, on foreign shores, many in unmarked graves from the death marches and prison camps.

Thousands are still missing, never to be heard from again by their families and loved ones.  The families will always be effected . Their lives are incomplete by not knowing. TOO MANY AMERICANS HAVE FORGOTTEN!  As long as ONE of these valiant warriors is forgotten, that is ONE too many!

The Warriors of  Viet Nam came back to a homeland that scorned them. They were treated like mercenaries instead of the Americans they were proud to be and serve. Too many today are homeless, disabled, still fighting for their RIGHT of survival and a chance to live the American Dream.

On so many "Unknown Soldiers" markers across this great country, read the words "Known only to God". Strangers to many and to each other. 

To all who did come back home, to all of the families that lost loved ones in all of the Wars and conflicts that our country has been involved in, know one thing,

THEY ARE KNOWN BY THE LAMB AND BY EACH OTHER. THEY HAVE REACHED THEIR HOMELAND .  THEY WERE WELCOMED HOME WITH A WELCOME HOME BANNER AND WITH GREAT JUBILATION!

Remember, we are still on the journey and in time we  will meet them again. So until then we MUST preserve the freedom and the ideals of this country that they gave their all for. Teach your children, make the effort each day, to make not only this country greater, but the world a better place in which to live.

TO ALL VETERANS
WELCOME HOME!
Thank you for a job well done!
