"You sleep safe in your beds, because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do you harm."
George Orwell
"Those who cling to the untrue doctrine that violence never settles anything would be advised to conjure up the ghosts of Napoleon Bonaparte and of the Duke of Wellington and let them debate it. The ghost of Hitler could referee, and the jury might well be the Dodo, the Great Auk, and the Passenger Pigeon. Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst. Nations and peoples who forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and freedoms. " Robert A. Heinlein

Naaa. Okinawa was bigger, and more complicated. Ok, Normandy was more iffy, and maybe more important. Otherwise, amazing video. That kids got a good teacher. Notice the clips from Band Of Brothers? I show that episode to my classes some times. Showed it to a class once just as the current unpleasantness was beginning, and a soldiers wife who was taking my class burst into tears, thinking about what her husband was up against. God bless them all, then and now.
