Elizabeth, I said a prayer for your daughter, and also for you and your entire family. May God Bless and Keep ALL those who are serving their country this Memorial Day, both at home and abroad. Just as our ancestors sacrificed to come to a new land, so do these wonderful young descendants sacrifice today to KEEP this country free for all. PEACE is not a God-given right, it MUST be earned! When the Going Gets Tough, The Tough Get Going! SgtGeorge George W. Durman SMSgt, USAF (Ret) Knoxville, TN At 03:23 PM 05/28/2000, Elizabeth E. & Charles P.

There is a BROYLES descendant, out on the front lines, I would like you to remember in prayer. That descendant, is Elizabeth Youngberg, my daughter. She is a Chaplain in the United States Army in an unaccompanied tour in Korea. In that she is up for Major this year, there is rumor that she be assigned another year in Korea, unaccompanied. She is as close to the DMZ as they allow a chaplain. As I write this I have tears in my eyes and lump in my throat. Yet at the same time I have peace, in my heart, knowing that she is where God would have her be, serving her God and Country. She may never be a legend but if a war broke out tomorrow she would be among the first to volunteer to go wherever that might be. If you are related to her, stand up and be proud. Elizabeth's lineage is as follows: (Johannes Broyles>Jacob A. Broyles>Jacob Broyles>Lewis Broyles>Jacob "Black Jake" Broyles> James Allen Broyles>Jonathan Montgomery Broyles>Oscar Owen Broyles>Mabel L. Broyles>Elizabeth E. Schneider>Elizabeth S. Jinks - aka Chaplain Youngberg.) Elizabeth Jinks **************END OF ORIGINAL MESSAGE TEXT**************
