I  BET YOU DIDN'T SEE THIS  

IN  THE NEWSPAPER OR  

ON  THE 6 O'CLOCK NEWS"

The Sailor Pictured  Below Is,  
Navy Petty  Officer,  
PO2  
(Petty Officer, Second  Class)   
EOD2  
(Explosive Ordnance  Disposal, Second Class)  
"MIKE  MONSOOR"  
April 5th, 1981 ~ September  29th, 2006  

Mike  Monsoor,  
Was Awarded "The  Congressional Medal Of Honor" Last Week,  
For Giving His  Life In Iraq, As He Jumped On, And Covered With His  Body, 
A Live Hand Grenade,  
That  Was Accidentally Dropped By A Navy Seal,  
Saving The Lives  Of A Large Group Of Navy Seals That Was Passing  By!   
~  
During Mike  Monsoor's Funeral,  
At Ft. Rosecrans  National Cemetery, In San Diego, California.  
The Six  Pallbearers Removed The Rosewood Casket From The  Hearse,  
And Lined Up On  Each Side Of Mike Monsoor's Casket,  
Were His  Family Members, Friends, Fellow Sailors, And  Well-wishers.  
The Column Of  People Continued From The Hearse, All The Way To The Grave  
Site.   
What The Group  Didn't Know At The Time Was,  
Every Navy  Seal   
(45 To Be  Exact)   
That Mike Monsoor  Saved That Day Was Scattered Through-Out The  Column!  
~  
As The Pallbearers  Carried The Rosewood Casket  
Down The  Column Of People To The Grave Side.  
The Column Would  Collapse.  
Which Formed A  Group Of People That Followed Behind.  
~  
Every Time The  Rosewood Casket Passed A Navy Seal,  
He Would  Remove His Gold Trident Pin From His Uniform,  
And Slap It Down  Hard,   
Causing The  Gold Trident Pin To Embed Itself  
Into The Top Of  The Wooden Casket!  
Then The Navy Seal  Would Step Back From The Column, And Salute!  
~  
Now For  Those,   
(And  Me)   
Who Doesn't Know  What A Trident Pin Is, Are What It Looks  Like?   
Here Is The  Definition And Photo!  
~  
After One  Completes The Basic Navy Seals Program Which Lasts For Three  
Weeks,   
And Is  Followed By Seal Qualification Training,  
Which Is 15  More Weeks Of Training,  
Necessary To  Continue Improving Basic Skills And To Learn New Tactics And  
Techniques,  
Required For  An Assignment To A Navy Seal Platoon.  
After successful  completion,  
Trainees Are Given  Their Naval Enlisted Code,  
And Are Awarded  The Navy Seal Trident Pin.  
With This  Gold Pin They Are Now Officially Navy Seal's!  
It Was  Said,   
That You Could  Hear Each Of The 45 Slaps From Across The  Cemetery!  
By The Time The  Rosewood Casket Reached The Grave Site,  
It Looked As  Though It Had A Gold Inlay From The 45 Trident Pins That  
Lined The Top!  

This Was A Fitting  End To An Eternal Send-Off For A Warrior  Hero!   
This Should Be Front-Page  News!   
Instead Of The Garbage  We Listen To And See Every Day.

*  "_Patriotism means to stand by the country. It does not  mean to stand _ 
()  by the president"  / Teddie  Roosevelt 

*  "We  cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the  
national security objectives we've set. We've  got to have a civilian national 
security force that's just as  powerful, just as strong, just as 
well-funded."  Barak Obama  Hussein / Colorado Springs on July 2,  2008. 

*  "A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many  
want in... And how many want out" / Prime  Minister Tony Blair 

"We are, always, reminded of the old saw:  What would happen if the Soviet 
Union took over the Sahara  Desert? Answer:  Nothing for 50 years. After 
that there would be a shortage of sand".  / William F. Buckley Jr. 

*  “Congressmen  who willfully take actions during wartime that  damages 
morale and undermine  the military are saboteurs and  should be arrested, 
quickly tried and hanged!!!' / Abraham  Lincoln 

SIR WINSTON  CHURCHILL 
"You may try to  destroy wealth, and find that all you have done is to 
increase  poverty" ... Commons, March 12,  1947 
"Socialism is the philosophy of failure , the  creed of ignorance , and the 
gospel of envy". - May 28,  1948 

THOMAS JEFFERSON 
The democracy will cease to exist when you  take away from those 
who are willing to work and give to  those who would not. 
It is incumbent on every generation to pay  its own debts as it goes. 
A principle which if acted on  would save one-half the wars of the world. 
I  predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent  the 
government from wasting the labors of the people under  the pretense 
of taking care of  them. 
My reading of history convinces me that most  bad government results 
from too much  government.  
No free man shall ever be  debarred the use of arms.

The  budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public  
debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be  tempered and 
controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should  be curtailed lest 
Rome become bankrupt. People must  again learn to work, instead of living on 
public  assistance.
