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.

"Too Far Gone?"
ReplyDeleteThe tires appear to be still viable........
ReplyDeleteThe Hornet launched the Doolittle raid on Tokyo in '42.
ReplyDeleteThe news piece said the Hornet went down in the Solomons. It was actually at Midway. The first Lexington was lost in the Solomons-New Guinea area.
