And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Lots of glass
The front of a Heinkel He-111 medium bomber in flight during a bombing mission to London, England, United Kingdom, November 1940.
On the day I got to ride in a B-17 - the "Sentimental Journey" - in 1998 I also got to climb inside and walk around in a Heinkel-111. If I remember correctly the Heinkel was the only airworthy one of the type at the time. A day that will live in my memory forever.
