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.
Had a pair of Danner Acadias that have been around the world and back. Seen the sands of Africa and the mid-east. Humped untold miles through mud and water and rocks and slightly cut the leather by snagging them up in TOW missile wire. Been re-soled twice, oiled many times. Finally hung them up 22 yrs ago. Never had a better pair of boots. Oh and paid 110 dollars brand new in 93.
Nice looking boots; the laces look brand new.
