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.
When my career Air Force officer father was assigned to Fuchu Air Force Station outside of Tokyo, we boarded one of these (horrible) planes and took 21 hours to fly from Honolulu to Tokyo. Of course, we landed in Guam and another island to refuel. What a nightmare!!!
