Born Alive !...and lived to tell about it

Agenda 21...“individual rights must take a back seat to the collective.” (In other words, complete control by the government; you can forget "We the people...")

Agenda 21 is a 300-page, 40-chapter, "soft-law" policy document adopted by the delegates to the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in Rio de Janeiro in 1992. The document is not legally binding; it is a set of policy recommendations designed to reorganize global society around the principles of environmental protection, social equity, and what is called "sustainable" economic development. At the heart of the concept of sustainable development, is the assumption that government must manage society to ensure that human activity conforms to these principles. ~ Austrian Scholars Conference March 16-18, 2006, Auburn, Alabama

Note: Regarding "...not legally binding", many states have enacted laws using the dictates of Agenda 21 as their guidelines.  An example of this is the state of Massachusetts' Non-Zoning Earth Removal Bylaw 

Agenda 21 ~ An excerpt from Agenda 21 and the United Nations by Henry Lamb

The idea that government is inherently empowered to manage the affairs of society is diametrically opposed to the idea that the just power of government is derived from the consent of the governed. As these conflicting principles collide in the arena of public policy, the people who are governed are losing the ability to limit the power of government. Consequently, government power over people is expanding.
Nowhere is this transformation more dramatic than in the policies governing private property rights and the use of land and its resources. Historically, the right to own and use private property in America has been considered to be a sacred right. This right is being usurped by government, which now dictates to private property owners how their land may - and may not - be used. This paradigm shift from sacred private property rights to government-managed land use, is a perfect example of how sustainable development is transforming America into a government-managed society.
This transformation is not the result of a deliberate decision made by elected representatives after fair and public debate. It is the result of years of subtle influence and obscure processes relentlessly imposed through the United Nations' agencies and organizations, and a multitude of non-government organizations accredited by, and sympathetic to the United Nations' agenda.

John Adams said, “Property must be secured, or liberty cannot exist.” The Decalogue emphasized private property in “Thou shalt not steal.” George Washington stated, “Private property and freedom are inseparable.”

Private property was so important to our Founding Fathers that its principles were included in the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. The right to property is surmised in the owner’s determination of land use, as long as its use does not “disturb the equal rights of another.”

The Declaration of Independence states that “...all Men…are endowed by their Creator with Certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.” United Nations Charter and Declaration of Human Rights are based on the idea that rights are granted and rescinded by men. The UN third world nations planners devised Agenda 21 on three suspect principles: Equity, Economy, and Environment, all controlled by government because “individual rights must take a back seat to the collective.”  Read full article here

GIVE ACT Re-visited

“…therefore, to reinstate man in his primitive rights of Equality and Liberty, we must begin by destroying all Religion...”

GIVE ACT Re-visited

By Norman E. Hooben

 
You may recall when former Prime Minister of England, Gordon Brown, announced after the G20 Summit meeting that “…the New World Order is emerging”… but little did you know that Obama included similar language in the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act (aka the G.I.V.E. Act, Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education Act…although it is mandatory rather voluntary, similar to the Hitler Youth Corps).  The dictatorial Act was signed into law on 4 April 2009 and section 1802 re-designates National Youth Service Day as Global Youth Service Day and designates April 24, 2009, and April 23, 2010, as Global Youth Service Days.  Global?  Who asked for global?  We the people certainly had no say…but the New World Order certainly is emerging!


On another note, the Act also has language that prohibits things formerly as American as apple pie.  Section 1310 states:


Prohibits the use of AmeriCorps positions for specified activities, including:
(1) attempting to influence legislation;
(2) engaging in protests, partisan political activities, or religious instruction;
(3) assisting or deterring union organizing;
(4) providing abortion services or referrals; or
(5) conducting voter registration drives

Influencing legislation in a free society originates from the people (that’s why we vote for who we vote for)…according to item (1) we should get rid of the individual and all lobbyists and let only the elected officials make up any law they so desire…oh I forgot, they already did this with the Obamacare legislation.

Item (2) prohibits engaging of protests…then what are all those people doing down on Wall Street?  Shouldn’t they all be arrested?  Also it prohibits partisan political activities.  What does that mean? No more Democrats and Republicans?  Oh, I get it we must belong to one united party, the Communist Party… There, that should stop all the cross-the-aisle bickering!  And the most egregious prohibition, thou shall not engage in religious instruction.  Wow!  Straight out of Adam Weishaupt, founder of the Order of Illuminati, “…therefore, to reinstate man in his primitive rights of Equality and Liberty, we must begin by destroying all Religion, all civil society, and finish by the destruction of all property.”

With that said, I’m going to leave it there because obviously we can see what’s coming next.  “In one word, you reproach us with intending to do away with your property.  Precisely so; that is just what we intend.” (Karl Marx, The Communist Manifesto)

Gun Safety: Rule No. 1 - Never point the gun at...awe forget it, you already know the rules.

Sorry, Obama, I'm not that naive...we are at war with Islam!

Inspire Magazine  ~ The following can be downloaded at "Public Intelligence" (a pdf file).   Some comments at another link at the same website would suggest that this information was designed by our own CIA in order to keep the fear factor in American citizens.  However, a New York Times article states that the Inspire Magazine is a creation of Samir Khan who was  killed in a drone strike along with the radical cleric Anwar al-Awalaki:

"..he left his comfortable life in Charlotte for Yemen, started a slick magazine for jihadists called Inspire that featured political and how-to articles..." 

In any event, the chronology is an alarming read as well as the bold assertions for any future harm  that await Americans (i.e. "and we will continue di­recting our blows towards your interests and the interests of your allies.").   The author, assumed to be Samir Khan, has an air of arrogance has he brags about his success and his methods of implementing explosive devices.  Speaking of arrogance, we have a resident in the White House who has repeated the phrase, "We are not at war with Islam."...he is so arrogant that he wishes us to believe that which is obviously not true...  Sorry, Obama, I'm not that naive.  The proof is in the details, we are at war with Islam; its written all over this document! ~ Norman E. Hooben 

                                          

Operation Hemorrhage

All praise is due to Allah and may His peace and blessings be upon His Messenger and his companions and family.

Allah says: {And let not those who disbelieve think they will escape. Indeed, they will not cause failure} [8: 59]

We, in the al Qaeda of the Arabian Peninsula would like to convey to our nation the glad news and the awaited sur­prise:

We have been enabled by Allah to blowup a UPS cargo plane on the 3rd of September, 2010, after its takeoff from Dubai International Airport.

We have succeeded in bringing down the UPS plane but because the enemy’s media did not attribute the operation to us we have remained silent so we may repeat the operation. This time we sent two explosive packages, one was sent through UPS, and the other through FedEx.

We would like to ask: Why didn’t the enemy reveal the truth about what happened with the downed UPS plane? Is it because the enemy could not discover why the plane was brought down? Or was it because the Obama administra­tion wanted to conceal the truth so it doesn’t expose the failure of his administration especially that it was during an election season?

We would like to say to Obama: We have struck against your aircrafts twice within one year and we will continue di­recting our blows towards your interests and the interests of your allies.

With the praise of Allah, our developed explosive device gives the option of detonation in the air or at the point of ar­rival and it is designed to evade the latest bomb detection methods.

We would like to tell the al-Saud government that Allah has exposed your treason and collaboration with the Zionists. The packages were being sent to Jewish synagoges and yet you interfered to defend them. May Allah’s curse be upon the transgressors.

Since the two operations have succeeded, it is our plan to disseminate the idea to the mujahidin worldwide and to expand its deployment onto both Civilian aircraft in the West as well as Cargo aircraft.

Our Shaykh Usama bin Ladin, may Allah protect him, said: “If our messages can reach you by words, then they wouldn’t have traveled by planes…”

May peace and blessings be upon His Messenger and his family.

al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula

11/02/2010 | Dhul Qa’dah 25 1431H

If your opponent covers his right cheek, slap him on his left. Since 9-11 the West has been stepping up defenses for its commercial aircrafts. The continuous attempts that followed 9-11 by our brother Richard Reid, the Heathrow airport plot and finally the operation of brother Umar Farouk have forced the West to spend billions of dollars to defend its airplanes. But what about cargo planes?

The air freight is a multi-billion dollar industry. FedEx alone flies a fleet of 600 aircrafts and ships an average of four million packages per day. It is a huge worldwide industry. For the trade between North America and Europe air cargo is indispensable and to be able to force the West to install stringent security measures sufficient enough to stop our explosive devices would add a heavy economic burden to an already faltering economy. We knew that cargo planes are staffed by only a pilot and a co-pilot so our objective was not to cause maximum casualties but to cause maximum losses to the American economy. That is also the reason why we singled out the two U.S. air freight companies: FedEx and UPS for our dual opera­tion.

In our discussions prior to the opera­tion we set the passage of explosive devices from any airport as a bench­mark of success. For us, blowing up the planes would have made us very pleased but according to our plan and specified objectives it was only a plus. The first package made it successfully and brought down the UPS flight in Dubai. The experiment was a brilliant success.

follow­ing operation we used a different explosive package and determined that if both packages passed through the inspection at the FedEx and UPS facilities and passed through the X-Ray systems at the airport, that would raise a worldwide alert that would force upon the West two choices: You either spend billions of dollars to inspect each and every package in the world or you do nothing and we keep trying again. The packages not only made it out of Sana'a but one of them made it all the way to London and if it was not for an intelligence tip, both devices would have deto­nated.

After the operation of brother Umar Farouk we have been experimenting with ways to bring down airplanes. We have researched the various se­curity systems employed by airports. We looked into X-Ray scanners, full body scanners, sniffing dogs and other aspects of security. The result­ing bomb was a device that we were confident that, with the will of Allah, it would pass through the most strin­gent and up-to-date security equip­ment.

We were right. The packages were inspected at the FedEx office (the deliverer reported to us that there was no checking at the UPS), they passed through the X-Ray machines at Sana’a airport, and went through the other procedures required by cargo companies. Both devices were not detected.

We are fighting a war against Ameri­can tyranny. This is a new Crusade waged by the West against Islam. Therefore we wanted to put things into proper perspective. This current battle fought by the West is not an isolated battle but is a continuation of a long history of aggression by the West against the Muslim world. In or­der to revive and bring back this his­tory we listed the names of Reynald Krak and Diego Diaz as the recipients of the packages. We got the former name from Reynald de Chatillon, the lord of Krak des Chevaliers who was one of the worst and most treach­erous of the Crusade's leaders. He fell into captivity and Salahuddeen personally beheaded him. The name we used for the second package was derived from that of Don Diego Deza, the Inquisitor General of the Spanish Inquisition after the fall of Granada who along with the Spanish mon­archy supervised the extermination and expulsion of the Muslim pres­ence on the Iberian Peninsula em­ploying the most horrific methods of torture and done in the name of God and the Church. Today we are facing a coalition of Crusaders and Zionists and we in al Qaeda of the Arabian Peninsula will never forget Palestine. How can we forget it when our motto is: "Here we start and in al-Aqsa we meet"? So we listed the address of the "Congregation Or Chadash", a Gay and Lesbian synagogue on our one of our packages. The second package was sent to "Congregation B'nai Zion". Both synagogues are in Chicago, Obama's city.

We were very optimistic about the outcome of this operation. That is why we dropped into one of the boxes a novel titled, Great Expecta­tions.

Praise be to Allah and may the peace and blessings be on His Messenger.  The most important aspect of preparing for the enemy is having the proper creed. All victory is from Allah and thus we need to have true faith in Him.  

After that we need to prepare the means that are needed to fight the enemy. In this article we will go through some of the technical aspects of the explosive packages.

Metal Detection Equipment:

We have been blessed by Allah to be able to sidestep the metal detection equipment and this is evident in the operation of Umar Farouk and the operation of Abul Khayr, may Allah accept him. That capability was a result of avoiding the use of metals altogether in our detonators. We have developed five such detonators.

Sniffers:

Good packaging and sealing of the explosive material prevents sniffing dogs or equipment from detecting the explosives. That is done by sealing the material and preventing any molecules from escaping the package, and afterwards cleaning the package thoroughly to clear off any molecules that may have dispersed during the filling of the material. We used a number of organic solvents to wash the toners from any residue that might have been on the surface.

X-Ray Equipment:

The first X-Ray machines where dual color followed by three colors and eventually six colors.  Metals show up in three colors, organic material shows up in two colors and inorganic material in one color. The color depends on the atomic number of the scanned material. There are other types of machines that we have not mentioned here but we talked about in an article by the Explosives Department and published in the twelfth issue of Sada' al-Malahem.

So how did we succeed in sidestepping the X-Ray scanners?

We used a device that contains organic, non-organic material, and metals. The  toner cartridge contains the toner which is carbon based and that is an organic material. The carbon’s molecular number is close to that of PETN. We emptied the toner cartridge from its contents and filled it with 340 grams of PETN. We then

inserted the detonator. We designed the detonator to be short so that it wouldn’t be detected and we filled it with 4 grams of Lead Azide. We connected the wires from the circuit to the toner in a way that would raise no suspicions if inspected. When the toner is inside the printer, a metal plate on the toner would touch the circuit wire.  If inspected the toner could be pulled out and would look normal without any wires sticking out. This method makes human inspection of the printer useless.

For the circuit we used a Nokia mobile phone. We removed the circuit board from the mobile and attached it next to a circuit board of the printer so if passed through a scanner the mobile circuit board would blend in with the circuit boards of the printer and even if opened it would not be recognized as a mobile since we used only the circuit board of the mobile.  The wires of the circuit also blend in well with the many wires of the printer. When the toner is pulled out the circuit is disconnected. When it is placed back the circuit is connected.  The door of the printer cannot close unless the toner is in place and this way we guaranteed that even if the printer is manually inspected, the toner must be placed back in its place otherwise the printer door would remain open.

With all the intelligence information the enemy had, they could not detect the explosives even though the printers were inspected twice in the UK.  They only discovered the explosives when they had the exact tracking number of the package.

Are X-Ray scanners sufficient for the detection of explosives?

All X-Ray machines work on the same principle: The diffraction of rays off the atom of the scanned material.  The rays pass through all material except lead which doesn’t allow the penetration of even Gamma rays.

We have studied various X-Ray scanners that are in use and those that might be deployed in the future but are too expensive to deploy now.  All these scanners work on one principle even if they are different.  In the future, new scanners could

be developed to designate specific colors for explosive material, but is this method practical? To answer this question we need to point out that explosive material contains a variety of a thousand different compounds and each of these compounds has its own molecular characteristics that are different than the rest. With such a huge variety can scanners solve this problem?

 
We would like to ask the Americans a question: Why try to solve the symptoms of the problem rather than the root?
 
Didn’t your security experts come together to find solutions for the security lapses in your airports and you spent millions of dollars in less than a year even though we already told you then that we knew the weak points of your equipment and by

the will of Allah we would be able to exploit them?   Nevertheless you were  stubborn.  But now you can see that we revealed to you a bigger security lapse than the last one and yet you are still being stubborn. The British government said that if a toner weighs more than 500 grams it won’t be allowed on board a plane. Who

is the genius who came up with this suggestion?  Do you think that we have nothing to send but printers?  Another suggestion is that the bomb maker needs to be killed. I and my brothers in the explosives department are from among the blessings of Abu Khabab al-Misri and Abu Abdul Rahman al-Muhajir who were

killed in Afghanistan. Do you think that our research will only be used by al Qaeda of the Arabian Peninsula and won't be shared with other mujahidin?  

We want to say to those of reason and wisdom among you: There is no solution for you with us except if you abide by this simple equation which has been repeated to you by our Shaykh Usama bin Ladin, may Allah protect him:

Our security = Your security

And likewise:

Our insecurity = Your insecurity

If you refuse then we will continue our war against you. In the name of Allah we are preparing for you since years and we will continue on this path.

Two Nokia mobiles, $150 each, two HP printers, $300 each, plus shipping, transportation and other miscellaneous expenses add up to a total bill of $4,200. That is all what Operation Hemorrhage cost us.  In terms of time it took us three months to plan and execute the operation from beginning to end. On the other hand this supposedly "foiled plot", as some of our enemies would like to call, will without a doubt cost America and other Western countries billions of dollars in new security measures.  That is what we call leverage. A $4,200 operation will cost our enemy billions of dollars. In terms of time and effort, three months of work for a team of less than six brothers would end up costing the West hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of hours of work in an attempt to protect itself from our packages of death.

 
From the start our objective was economic. Bringing down a cargo plane would only kill a pilot and co-pilot. It is true that blowing up the planes in the sky would add to the element of fear and shock but that would have been an additional advantage to the operation and not a determining factor of its success.

During the initial discussions of the team it was determined that the success of the operation was to be based on two factors: The first is that the packages pass through the latest security equipment.  The second, the spread of fear that would cause the West to invest billions of dollars in new security procedures. We have succeeded in the former and we are now witnessing the inception of the latter.

We will continue with similar operations and we do not mind at all in this stage if they are intercepted.  It is such a good bargain for us to spread fear amongst the enemy and keep him on his toes in exchange of a few months of work and a few thousand bucks.  We would gladly dispense with a remote controlled device that does not require us to put a mujahid on board a plane.  For our enemies to think that intercepting such a package is evidence of their success is truly ridiculous.

What has passed is the first of a multiphase operation. The next phase would be to disseminate the technical details of our device to the mujahidin around the world to use from their respective countries. The following phase would be for us to use our connections to mail such packages from countries that are below the radar and to use similar devices on civilian aircrafts in Western countries.  We are laying out for our enemies our plan in advance because as we stated earlier our objective is not maximum kill but to cause a hemorrhage in the aviation industry, an industry that is so vital for trade and transportation between the U.S. and Europe.

Barney Frank In Jail ?...not a bad idea!

Newt Gingrich Wants to Arrest Barney Frank
The accompanying picture is not associated with the following story

By The Atlantic Wire

The Opening Serve: Newt Gingrich was one of the forgotten stars of last night's debate, which centered on Republican hopefuls Mitt Romney and Herman Cain. But that didn't keep him from unleashing some one of the night's memorable zingers. When asked about "class warfare" and the current state of Occupy Wall Street, Gingrich said, "But let's be clear about who put the fix in ... If you want to put people in jail, I want to second what Michele said, you ought to start with Barney Frank and Chris Dodd." Charlie Rose, who moderated the debate, asked for clarification and gave Gingrich an opportunity to take back the Dodd and Frank prison comments. Gingrich didn't take it. "In Barney Frank's case, go back and look at the lobbyist who was close to Freddie Mac. All I'm saying is, everybody in the media who wants to go after the business community ought to start by going after the politicians who were at the heart of the sickness which is weakening this country," said Gingrich.
The Return Volley: Frank responded to Gingrich last night. Frank said his and Dodd's role in the financial meltdown was absurd, since Republicans controlled the House and -- except for a brief period -- Senate, from 1995 to 2007, Talking Points Memo reports. "It's interesting, the charge is failure to stop Newt Gingrich and Tom Delay from deregulating," said Frank. "This notion we caused the problem that started while they were in charge even by Gingrich's standards is very odd."

Obama / Hillary express condolences to terrorist's family

The above collage has no connection to Investor's Business Daily.

The following from: Investor's Business Daily

Apologies Not Accepted

INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY

Leadership: Leaked cables show Japan nixed a presidential apology to Hiroshima and Nagasaki for using nukes to end the overseas contingency operation known as World War II. Will the next president apologize for the current one?

The obsessive need of this president to apologize for American exceptionalism and our defense of freedom continued recently when Barack Obama's State Department (run by Hillary Clinton) contacted the family of al-Qaida propagandist and recruiter Samir Khan to "express its condolences" to his family.

Khan, a right-hand man to Anwar al-Awlaki, was killed along with Awlaki in an airstrike in Yemen on Sept. 30. We apologized for killing a terrorist before he could help kill any more of us.

It's yet another part of the world apology tour that began with Obama taking the oath of office to protect and defend the United States and its Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic, something he immediately felt sorry for.

One stop on his tour was Prague in August 2009. There he spoke of "America's commitment to seek the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons," ignoring that before 1945 we lived in such a world and it was neither peaceful nor secure.

Another stop on the tour was in Japan, where Obama in November 2009 bowed to the emperor, something no American president had ever done. It could have been worse if plans to visit Nagasaki and Hiroshima to apologize for winning the war with the atom bombs had come to pass.

A heretofore secret cable dated Sept. 3, 2009, was recently released by WikiLeaks. Sent to Secretary of State Clinton, it reported Japan's Vice Foreign Minister Mitoji Yabunaka telling U.S. Ambassador John Roos that "the idea of President Obama visiting Hiroshima to apologize for the atomic bombing during World War II is a 'nonstarter.'"

The Japanese feared the apology would be exploited by anti-nuclear groups and those opposed to the defensive alliance between Japan and the U.S.

Whatever Tokyo's motive, Obama's motive was to once again apologize for defending freedom, this time for winning with devastating finality the war Japan started.

While Obama envisions a world without nuclear weapons, and moves steadily toward unilateral disarmament of our nuclear arsenal, we envision a world without tyrants and thugs willing to use them against us. We do not fear nuclear weapons in the hands of Britain or France, countries that share our love of freedom and democracy.

It was not all that clear in August 1945 that Japan was ready to surrender. Okinawa, where 101,000 Japanese and 24,000 Americans died, was a clear indication of the fanatical resistance to come in an invasion of the Japanese home islands. That resistance ended only when Tokyo became convinced there would soon be nothing to defend.

Nuclear weapons in the right hands ended the violence of World War II. In the right hands, they kept Western Europe free and helped win the Cold War. And the fact that they'd been used made it less likely they would ever be used again.

The world that Imperial Japan envisioned was quite different than the one we now enjoy. That regime's dream was of an imperial rising sun blistering the globe. Good thing they saw a rising sun of a quite different sort, the fulfillment of Japanese Adm. Isoroku Yamato's prophecy after Dec. 7, 1941: "I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."

President Obama fails to realize that being the leader of the Free World, the last best hope for mankind, means never having to say you're sorry.

Family Lost In Corn Maze Calls 911 For Help 

BOSTON -- A North Shore police department received an unusual emergency call on Monday from a family who was lost in a corn maze.
A man used his cellphone to call from Connors Farm in Danvers at about 7 p.m. Tuesday after he, his wife and two children became lost in the maze, police said.

Police alerted farm management of the man's predicament, and a rescue, including a K-9, was organized.
K9 officer Justin Ellenton said when he got to the entrance of the maze, he yelled and could hear people. The family was about 25 feet inside the maze.
The family was not hurt.
The maze, a tourist attraction that winds people down paths between of towering cornstalks, generally takes about an hour to complete.

The thing to remember is that the poor sisters of those days were buried in a pine box and in no way embalmed like today.

 

St. Bernadette's Body after 122 years.

This is one of the 200+ miracle facts of incorruptible bodies that can only be traced to most of the declared saints of the Roman Catholic Church.

 

The Body after 122 years.

These are the pictures of St.. Bernadette who died 122 years ago in Lourdes , France and was buried; her body was only discovered 30 years ago.  After church officials decided to examine it, they discovered her body is
still fresh until today and if you ever go to Lourdes , France you can see her in the church in Lourdes. Her body isn't decomposing because during her lifetime, the Mother of Jesus would always appear to her and give messages and advice to all mankind on the right way to live on this earth.  Many miracles have taken place in this place of Lourdes and still do until today.

These pictures show her body after 122 years.

ps: here's something else to think about

Leo is gone now but his story is still alive

My Uncle Leo was quite the story teller.  If the story was sad he made your eyes water.  If funny you laughed.  Of course all his stories came from real-life experiences.  I don’t remember a whole lot about Leo during my early years for he moved his family to California while I grew up in Massachusetts.  It wasn’t until I joined the Air Force that I was to get to know him like an uncle should be known.

He told me stories about my mom and dad that I had never realized but shed some light as to why I was brought up in an orphanage. 

My first get-to-know-my-uncle time was when I was on my way to Alaska in 1963.  I spent a few days with him while en-route to my new duty station.  We had a great time while he showed me all around his place of work.   He worked for MGM studios in those days as a night watchman and taking me around the studio back-lots in that army jeep (used on the TV series Combat) was as memorable as memories can be.  And yes, he told me a few stories.

A few more visits over the years as I passed through California from one military assignment to another got to be almost as if the Air Force was playing family reunion as a part of my transfer orders.  There was the week my family and I stayed while on our way to Okinawa with a repeat of the same on our way back from the Pacific.   Just to mention that ocean brought more stories from Uncle Leo…you see he spent a lot of time there in WW II.

Then it was around 1973 while stationed in Texas that the Air Force would send me TDY (Air Force lingo for Temporary Duty) to Southern California…I guess the reason for the TDY is not important here, but just in case you’re interested, it was to buy dogs for the military working dog program.  Yeah, it was great!  Right down the road (so to speak) from my Uncle Leo’s place was Fort MacArthur where all the preliminary physicals and qualification testing was accomplished before the dogs were inducted into the service.  But that’s another story…for it was during this visit that Leo told the story that led me to tell this story.

I’m not sure what it was that perked his memory but he began this story by lighting up a cigarette (and yes, he was a heavy smoker…the old Lucky Strikes without the filter).  He was somewhere out in the middle of the Pacific Ocean being transferred to another island during some of the heaviest fighting of WW II.  Now Leo can only tell this part the way Leo can and I cannot re-enact the inflection of his voice.  He describes the situation where he sees a grown man on his knees reciting some prayer while a torpedo is headed straight for the ship.  Most everyone thought it would be their last day on earth…except Leo.  He lights a cigarette and nonchalantly walks to the ship’s stern and flicks his ashes over the torpedo that passes harmlessly below curvature of the hull and disappears.

Now I may not have given the torpedo story much justice but let’s fast forward to October 1, 2011.  In the town where I live they have what is called Claybank Jamboree every first Saturday in October.  One of the vendors on display in the town’s square was distributing free books.  When a book was handed to me I didn’t pay too much attention to the title until I reached home later in the day.  It’s a religious book and I’m not a huge reader of denominational conditionings…my religious beliefs are pretty much set at my age.  But then again I wasn’t going to let a book go to waste…so I began reading “Psalm 91 God’s Shield of protection”.  Not a catchy title that I’d be looking for at a book store but here’s what it said right there in chapter one:

“…a situation in which a U.S. Navy boy from Texas found himself.  Running spiritually to his secret place is most likely what saved his ship from disaster. He and his mother had agreed to repeat Psalm 91 each day at a given time, to add agreement to his protection covenant.  He later told of a time when his ship was under attack from the air and from an enemy submarine at the same time.   All battle stations on the ship were in operation when the sub came within firing range and loosed a torpedo directly toward them.  At that moment the young man realized it was the exact time that his mother would be saying Psalm 91, so he began quoting the psalm just as the torpedo wake appeared, headed directly toward their battleship.  Then, when it was just a short distance away, it suddenly swerved, passing the stern and disappearing.”

Leo is gone now but his story is still alive...
