Kathryn: Thank you for your kind words, but without the support of the home front our efforts would be fruitless. The strength of the United States begins and ends with its people. As long as her people remain strong, so will the United States.

None the less, I would like to say that I and, I would venture to say, many of the other members of this list, are indebted to him, and all those like him, who make the sacrifice that makes it possible for the rest of us to have the freedom to pursue interests like genealogy -- or whatever our interests are. Every day I wake up with the freedoms I enjoy because people of LT Freese and hundreds of thousand of otherrs like him.
