It'll take 20, 30, 40 years for people to realize the sacrifices implied in keeping up our freedom.
To Larry Rougle and his comrades, family, friends and friends of friends: we all share something in this, not the least we who have had sons there. From Spain, we ask for the mercy of the Allmighty and a place in his garden to all who gave all they had for freedom. .
