"My thoughts this Memorial Day could best be explained in terms of a "Field of Dreams"
If I were to build a space, a blank farm or field, a place for the "ghosts" of U.S. wars past to all come together as in the movie "Field of Dreams" only instead of former Baseball legends, I want to have the game instead played by former soldiers who have captivated our hearts and imaginations-who would play first? Who'd be on second? I can't play either so I guess that'd make me the referee, though I've never been a soldier- I have saved over 2,500 families lives after Hurricane Harvey, and we would have saved all 5,000 plus had Google Maps not dropped our map when the dam was intentionally released and our volunteers- all in Port Arthur at the time with their own boats using their own gas out there saving lives- when they had many of their boats capsize right at the exact moment the drowning victims needed them the most. "Dreamer" Alonso Guillen heard all the cries for help in Texas after 911 jammed and drowning victims (many taking their last breaths) hit up Facebook and Twitter for help. Alonso Guillen's family begged him to stay safe and stay in, but not all heroes wear capes and Alonso wanted to save lives. So he was in a boat out there and we were in direct Twitter contact with his team, when his boat capsized and he drown. I will never forget a message from his girlfriend immediately after it happened letting me know it was dark and they couldn't find him after the boat capsized. My heart STILL TO THIS DAY 3 years later breaks for Alonso Guillen. He would be the first person I'd like to join my team and have the pleasure to meet in person, along with all the other "Anonymous" heroes who provided logistics for the event working day and night, creating a rescue map, updating it with shelters for rescuers and flood victims, boat entrances, street water depths, gas apps, food and water, horse trailers etc. for a week straight saving as many lives as they could. There would be more then enough heroes just from logistics alone to fill up one team to play our fallen soldiers. Link to Alonso Guillen's story here. [link to www.washingtonpost.com (secure)]


Now for my other team, the first person I would like to call up is a tie between ex Arizona Cardinals NFL football player/war hero Pat Tillman and author of "War is a Racket" Major General Smedley Butler. Perhaps Major General wins this tie, as he tried to warn Pat Tillman and all the other men thinking about signing up for the U.S. military that all wars are banker wars-had Pat Tillman been able to comprehend the gravity of what the former General was saying, he never would have given up his million dollar NFL contract with the Cardinals to enlist in the U.S. Military to make money for Dick Cheney, Haliburton and all the Big Banks and oil companies- and spared his own life. Here is a link to the "War is a Racket" declaring all wars are for the profit of the rich bankers who start them, to get richer-is right here. [link to babel.hathitrust.org (secure)]





Next, then would be Pat Tillman and his brother Kevin Tillman, you can read his book the Pat Tillman story about how after the tragic events of 9/11 he was so Patriotic and willing to go to battle for his fellow Americans that he quit his job as an NFL player for the Arizona Cardinal to enlist. He soon became disillusioned with the Gulf War and began to speak out, he kept a journal that was later burned and never recovered, perhaps the best way to honor him would have been to publish that journal. Sadly Pat Tillman was killed by "Friendly Fire" coming from his own soldiers - they can't have America's Perfect Poster Boy for war wake up and warn the others like General Smedley Butler did can they? Link to Pat Tillman's story here. R.I.P. to all the firefighters who lost their lives on 911. I'd have ANY ONE of them on my team ANY DAY as well!

The next person I would call up would be any of the countless young boys who were drafted against their will in the 60's. Dan Bullock was only 14 years old when he enlisted to fight that war, and died at the tender young age of only 15 years old. Countless young men lost their lives in the Vietnam war drummed up by a false flag led by no other then pop music 60's Rock icon Jim Morrison's father. George Stephen Morrison was a United States Navy rear admiral and naval aviator. Morrison was commander of the U.S. naval forces in the Gulf of Tonkin during the Gulf of Tonkin Incident of August 1964, which sparked an escalation of American involvement in the Vietnam War.

You can say the student's that were murdered in cold blood by our own government after speaking out against the Vietnam war in the 60's at Kent State University-who were also fighting for our country, trying to save the lives of their friends who could be drafted and killed at any moment. How many lives would have been saved - had the American people avenged their deaths and ended the Vietnam war immediately after they were killed after speaking out in protest? I certainly would have a spot on my team for ANY ONE OF THEM-in fact come to think about it with all these fallen heroe's I may have enough to form an entire baseball league, far more then one game could capture the significance of."

There are many more But prayers for all!

Exactly right. There's a side that holds liberty high, and a side that delights in control of others. That's basically what it boils down to.

Today I honor those who were willing to bleed out in a field so that I was free to walk through my neighborhood, to worship my God, to voice my opinion, even to decide what to do today.

Yes war sucks, but servitude to a master sucks worse. We enjoy the gift of freedom at the price of the blood of heroes.

I walked around the cemetery today, in the Veterans area. There were so many WWII vets headstones, hundreds of them. Back then everybody who could do so hurried to join the fight. What a bunch of softies we are now.
