March 29, 1973 was the last day American troops were in South Vietnam. In 2009 a state law came into effect: Vietnam Veterans Day in Texas. This recognition is commemorated on March 29.
C-141 Tail Number 60177 was the last of the 285 C-141's built by Lockheed to leave active service. She flew 100 POWs out of Hanoi on 12 February 1973, some of them tasting freedom for the first time in six years. Each POW put their shot-down date on the face of the oxygen panel during their flight to Clark Air Base in the Philippines. For her retirement ceremony, some of the POWs she brought home were brought back for the ceremony and one last flight by this gracious lady. Most of them are old men now but their enthusiasm, emotions, and excitement were evident during this flight and retirement ceremony. She was then flown to Dayton, Ohio where she will spend her final days in the Air Force Museum.

If this doesn't convince you to vote out Obama, what will? Talk about inviting the enemy into your home -- now we are paying them to continue their attack on our way of life. Yep, that's out taxpayer dollars we are talking about -- and remember, forty cents of every dollar Obama gave them was borrowed money. We have lost our collective minds.
And, by-the-way, can anyone show me where giving money to the Muslim Brotherhood (or anyone else, for that matter) is authorized by Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution? Also, when you are voting remember, Obama can't give it away unless someone funds it. He has it available as a result of the "continuing resolution" that covers the absence of the Constitutionally required budget (that hasn't been passed in three years). Maybe we should look in the mirror at the cause of this mess. We the People have not been watching the store while the rats are stealing the cheese.

Obama Hollows Out Military: Tanks For The Memories

Founders Quote of theWeek
Most of us wonder if our lives made
any difference. Marines don't have that problem.
It's the Military, not the reporter who has given us the
freedom of the press.
It's the Military, not the poet, who has given us the
freedom of speech.
It's the Military, not the politicians, that ensures our right
to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
It's the Military who salutes theflag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by theflag.
God Bless the USA, our troops, and you.
Ronald Reagan
