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 tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Another fine Grumman product. Growing up on Long Island, I had two friends on my block who's engineer dad's worked for Grumman. One worked on the lunar lander propulsion system and the other on designing the F-14 landing gear. Very cool!
