Army Pictures :)

For those of you who want some pictures, here are a few I just took a couple minutes ago of myself. The camera is a big pain to set the timer on, and it's only like 10 seconds, which is barely time to get into place, let alone make a good face.. but here are the pictures :) ;)

I'm tough... sorta... lol

Just another picture I took..
Ok, so it's not the regulation uniform appearance... but it's cooler this way :)
Me making a lame attempt at looking cool...

So this is more military dress code style... the sunglasses aren't supposed to be blue though, but that's the only thing.
^^^Here I am!!^^^
Army Rocks- oh yea!

Christ The Lord Is Risen Today!!

Happy easter everybody!! Every year on either on Good Friday of Easter I watch the Passion of the Christ by Mel Gibson. It reminds me of just how much Jesus had to pay for our sins. In modern history when a soldier dies it is said he gives the greatest sacrifice. However, Jesus is really the one who gave the greatest sacrifice. Not only did he die an innocent man in one of the most horrible ways ever, but he took on all our sins, a sinless son of God, and his spirit died too. As I wait for the sunrise this morning, I remember that 2000 years ago my Jesus was raised from the dead, came back to life in human form, so He could return to heaven where he is seated at the right hand of the Father. He said to his disciples when He departed into the clouds, "I go to prepare a place for you" Truly, I cannot wait to see what He has in store for us. The only thing I know about the splendor of heaven is that nobody on earth can picture how wonderful it will be :)
God bless, and have a blessed and wonderful Easter Sunday!!

Proud to serve God, Country, and Fellow Man as an American Soldier.

It is the Soldier, not the minister
Who has given us freedom of religion.

It is the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the Soldier, not the poet
Who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer
Who has given us freedom to protest.

It is the Soldier, not the lawyer
Who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the Soldier, not the politician
Who has given us the right to vote.

It is the Soldier who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag.


As an American soldier, the first and most important duty is to be a servant. Jesus called us to put others before ourselves, and that the greatest of men is the one who will humble himself as a servant. I can see no greater way to become a servant than to risk my life to protect the country and people I love. It is the soldier who risks his life to save a stranded young mother with her baby in a flood. It is the soldier who jumps from a helicopter to rescue a bleeding old man from the rubble of his house after an earthquake. It is the soldier who helps rebuild after a hurricane. It is the soldier who risks life and limb to get a trapped family away from their house in a forest fire. It is the soldier who distributes food to those who are dying of starvation. It is the soldier who faces bombs and bullets to rescue a wounded fellow soldier. It is the soldier who gave us independance It is the soldier who protects what he holds dear, and it is because of the courage, and servant-hood of the American soldier that Americans sleep safely in their beds each night. Please keep me along with all the other American soldiers in your prayers, God bless, and thank-you for being true to the American idea of freedom, even in these dark days when politicians do their best to strip us of every freedom we have.
God Bless!
