Praise GOD for our Marines & Happy Birthday to all of you who are reading this. Working directly with the Marines for decades in my service in the Navy in the amphibious field of operations, I got to know many a Marine and know your Honor in your service. Many a Marine Birthday Ball I was able to attend and it was ALWAYS a true treat!
My association with the Marines began early in my career as a young 18 year old sailor who happened into a helicopter which got shot down in Viet Nam on the wrong side of the line. 3 of us, out of 13 made it out and spent close to two weeks wondering around hiding & trying to survive while we didn’t have a clue where we were and had no communications equipment whatsoever. Twas a Marine Recon Platoon who eventually found us and pulled us out.
I thank GOD for our Marines, and all our service men & women actually, every day! We own them such an Honor it is impossible to describe. Thank You to all Marines on this great day, (Happy Birthday!!!), and Thank You to ALL our service men & women and I congratulate you on this upcoming Veterans Day tomorrow. Some Gave All, All Gave SOME!!! THANK YOU!!!

Pastor you are too kind and Rick’s comment says more about his courage and valor than many will ever know.
His service to this country is exceeded only by his service to our LORD. Rick is now waging a battle against a killer that has Satan as a sponsor.
God bless both of you and everyone pray for Rick and this ministry
