God willing, precious few Americans will have to make the ultimate sacrifice on future battlefields.

In the meantime, we thank all those who have made the supreme sacrifice so that the ideas put down on parchment some two and a half centuries ago still endure today.

Memorial Day Message 2021
Will they, should the leftist have their way, and establish some sort of socialist or neo-fascist state be reduced to fighting for their homeland, with not much cause to spill a drop of blood for whatever collectivist ideology takes the place of individual freedom?
