� e Jinx Is Up

x � ere are just some teams everybody pulls for, whether or not they are rivals or from di� er-ent towns, and at the top of that list lies one team: � e Chicago Cubs.

Yankee fans would not have minded one bit if the Red Sox lost forever. � ere were maybe some mixed feelings in 1986 when the Mets took on the Sox in the World Series, but nothing really too serious. Yankee fans looked with lust upon the Mets during that season. Just the idea of having a catcher like Gary Carter during the post-Munson, C e r o n e - Wy n e g a r -Skinner era seemed oth-erworldly to fans of the Bombers (not to mention the sanity at the manage-rial spot). And while there was a begrudging tip of the hat over the years to Big Papi and Curt Shilling's sock, whenever guys like Wade Boggs or Johnny Damon joined the team and

chipped in during winning years, most Yankee fans merely thought it was cool that a few Red Sox players helped the Bombers out in between bouts of pining for Don Mattingly.

Maybe in St. Louis there are dug-in pockets of resistance against the Cubs' allure. � at's un-derstandable, but they should know that the St. Louis Blues are second on the list of teams many non-locals wouldn't mind seeing win Lord Stanley's Cup someday, if only to keep things interesting. And that's being generous, since Cardinal fans can get kinda smug and ruin those sentiments in the time it takes to put down one toasted ravioli on � e Hill.

Still, in order for a team to be a rival, the other team must win o n c e i n a w h i l e . Otherwise, what do you h a v e ? H a r l e m Globetrotters versus Washington Generals or

Duke versus Maryland (Best taunt ever? The Dookies chanting "not our ri-val!" as the Terps ran up and down the court with them.)

Now is the time for the Chicago Cubs. In base-ball, no matter what they say about pitching, the manager's spot is the most important. � ere are no coincidences that guys like LaRussa, Torre, Herzog, Piniella, Yost, Billy Martin (between bar fights), Showalter and Joe Maddon win ev-er ywhere they go. Wherever they go they bring their ideas with them, and, with all due respect to Casey Stengel ... they usually go right back to winning soon enough. Water � nds its level.

� ere is no such thing as a curse or a jinx, but there is such a thing as the right place and time. Guys like David Ross, Anthony Rizzo, Justin Grimm, Kris Bryant and the rest of the decep-tively hot-hitting Cubs in their "whatever you think is hot" suits, they're feeling it. So brace your-self, Wrigley Field ... the jinx is up.

Carolyn W. Colvin, the Acting Commissioner of Social Security, and other leaders in the � ght to end homelessness gathered today to continue the ongoing battle against homelessness among vet-erans, seniors, and other vulnerable populations.

“Social Security plays a key role in reducing home-lessness, and our bene� t payments help people to secure and maintain stable h o u s i n g ,” A c t i n g Commissioner Colvin said. “Social Security is the most successful anti-poverty program in our country’s history and collaborates with other federal, state and local agencies to ensure that veterans, people who are disabled, have lost a loved one, or are retiring have access to our bene� ts and services.”

Acting Commissioner Colvin joined with federal and state o� cials to discuss initiatives to end homeless-ness and outreach pro-grams to vulnerable popu-lations, including veterans, at a forum called “Ending Homelessness: Lessons L e a r n e d f r o m t h e C o m m o n w e a l t h o f Virginia.” Representatives from the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness, the Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services A d m i n i s t r a t i o n (SAMHSA), the Virginia Department of Veterans Services, and the Virginia

Housing Alliance partici-pated in the discussion.

In 2015, Virginia an-nounced that it had ended homelessness among vet-erans. Many federal and state agencies are looking to replicate best practices from Virginia’s success in their respective states.

Social Security has col-laborated with other federal agencies to develop key strategies for connecting veterans and other indi-viduals experiencing h o m e l e s s n e s s t o Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Social Security Disability Income (SSDI) bene� ts. � rough partnerships across the country with the SSI/SSDI Outreach, Access and Recovery (SOAR) initia-tive, the agency receives more complete disability applications. � ey have a higher rate of approval on the initial application because someone is helping the applicant, especially homeless people who have difficulty documenting their cases and getting their medical records. SOAR is a national project, funded by the SAMHSA, designed to increase access to SSI and SSDI for eligible adults who are homeless or at risk of homelessness and have a mental illness, medical impairment, and/or a co-occurring substance use disorder. � e SOAR project provides training on how to complete the SSI/SSDI application to service pro-viders working with indi-

viduals experiencing homelessness.

Veterans are at an in-creased risk of both home-lessness and disability. Social Security offers several initiatives to accel-erate processing disability bene� t claims from veter-ans.

Since 2005, the agency has provided expedited processing of disability ap-plications for wounded warriors who have su� ered an injury or illness while serving on active duty a� er October 1, 2001.

Beginning in 2014, dis-ability applications for those with a Veterans A� airs (VA) disability com-pensation rating of 100% receive expedited process-ing for Social Security dis-ability benefits. Social Security worked with the VA to set up a data ex-change to identify these veterans when they first apply for Social Security or SSI bene� ts. � e agency is proud to support President Obama’s e� orts to take care of veterans who have sac-ri� ced so much.

For more information about wounded warriors and veterans who have a compensation rating of 100%, please visit www.socialsecurity.gov/veterans.

For additional informa-tion about the SOAR project and initiatives to help people experiencing homelessness, visit www.socialsecurity.gov/home-lessness.

WHEREHave I Seen That


A Genuine Hero

Mankind has always had an innate need for a hero. Children play and pretend to be certain heroes. Mythology re-counts the mighty acts of heroes. Modern � ction has formulated superheroes. But none of these heroes are real. On Memorial Day we honor true heroes. They are ordinar y men and women who served their country in uniform and gave the ultimate sacri-fice of their lives in battle.

Scott Sernes recount-ed the story of Medal of Honor recipient Captain Ed Freeman. “You’re a 19-year-old kid. You’re critically wounded and dying in the jungles of Vietnam. Your unit is outnumbered 8 – 1 and the enemy fire is so intense that your CO has ordered Med Evac heli-copters to stop coming in. You’re lying there, listening to the enemy’s machine guns and you know you’re not getting out.

“As the world starts to fade in and out, you know that this is the day. � en, over the sound of the machine guns, you faintly hear the sound of a helicopter. You look up and see a Huey coming in. It doesn’t seem real; there’s no Med Evac in-signias visible. Captain Ed Freeman is coming in for you. He heard the radio call and decided he’s � ying down into the battle anyway. � ey load three of you at a time and � y you out through the hail of bullets to safety – to nurses and doctors. He keeps � ying in and out – 13 more times –

until all the wounded are out. No one knew, until the mission was over, that Captain Freeman had been hit 4 times in his legs and le� arm. He took you and 29 of your buddies out that day.” Captain Ed Freeman, USAF, was a goodness to God genuine hero! What is a goodness to God genuine hero?

HE LAYS DOWN HIS L I F E F O R H I S FRIENDS. Jesus de� nes it in John 15:3, “Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.” Jesus revealed his identity and mission, “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.” (John 10:11) What loving friendship Jesus demon-strated on the cross.

HE LAYS DOWN HIS

L I F E F O R H I S ENEMIES. Jesus demon-strated the extraordinary love of God, “For scarce-ly for a righteous man will one die: yea per ad-venture for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commend-ed his love toward us in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:7-8) As Jesus hung on the cross between two thieves, he prayed, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” (Luke 23:34) An old gospel song by Dottie Rambo says, “If that isn’t love, the ocean is dry. � ere’s no stars in the sky. And the sparrow can’t � y. If that isn’t love. � en heaven’s a myth. There’s no feeling like this. If that isn’t love.”

HE STANDS UP FOR THE MARGINALIZED AND BROKEN. A lady, charged with adultery, was brought to Jesus. � e law said to stone her. Jesus said, “He that is without sin among you,

let him cast the first stone . . . � en those who heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, . . . Jesus said to the woman, “Neither do I condemn you: go and sin no more” (John 8:7-11) Jesus stands up for you when everyone else walks away.

Jesus is the goodness to God genuine hero in my book. He not only died in our place, but he conquered death, hell, and the grave when he arose on the third day. He is Lord! (Romans 10:9)

A Party Divided

Ouch! Sanders has � at out said if he is elected p r e s i d e n t , D e b b i e Wasserman Schultz will not be the chair of the Democratic National Committee (DNC).

� ere's a lot of friction in the Democratic Party, which I find interesting because they should have learned something from the Republican Tea Party.

Ms. Schultz, Barack Obama's handpicked puppet, has followed through with her boss (Obama) and has become another great divider of the Democrats.

Hillary is running around saying, "I will be the Democratic nominee." Not so fast, Ms. Clinton! And Billy is pointing out that his wife is being treated disrespectfully by the Sanders camp, in essence saying to Bernie, step aside and support "the queen."

Flash back, folks, to 2008 when Hillary was saying the same thing Bernie's saying today. In other words, my point is it's not over till it's over! Although it's likely Hillary is right and she'll probably b e t he D emo crat ic nominee, I wouldn't put my last dollar on it. In my personal opinion, even though I'm not in the Bernie camp, I think the Democratic Chair and Party establishment has been unfair to Sanders.

I'm looking at the dele-gate numbers, not super delegates, and it's close. As of last Sunday:

Clinton delegates 1,768; Sanders delegates 1,494.

Clinton super delegates 525; Sanders super dele-gates 39.

� ere are only 712 del-egates remaining so neither will reach the magic number with regular delegates. � ese numbers alone should give the Hillary supporters and the Democratic Party reason to pause. Is Hillary the people's choice? Plus on June 7, the last big primary day, I believe the numbers, minus super delegates, could � ip. Time will tell.

In the beginning of this election cycle I said this go-round it would be very di� erent. It has been and I'm sorry to say it could get worse.

So what's next? Hillary ads are using the woman card and targeting the female vote. Unfortunately, some portions of the ads have been taken out of context. And don't be shocked if Michelle Obama doesn't hit the campaign trail, looking to pull in the black female vote, espe-cially the young voters where Hillary remains weak.

While Democrats are su� ering a great divide, with Bernie supporters saying they won't vote Hillary, when you put the numbers together they're showing Bernie Sanders

has a much greater chance of beating Trump by far over Hillary Clinton.

Hillary said Sunday she thinks Trump should release his tax returns. I sort of think she should release all the emails and her Wall Street speeches.

But leaving you with a thought on Socialism: Take a good look at Venezuela, the sixth richest oil nation in the world. This once progressive country has fallen into violence, a ham-burger costs $170.00. Women are being asked to not use hair dryers because of lack of power. People are protesting against rationed food.

SOCIALIST UNREST.

What does this have to do with anything? Plenty. Bernie Sanders is a pro-claimed socialist, but in reality, so is Hillary Clinton. She just doesn't claim to be!

In closing, I believe we'll witness the ug l iest Presidential race of all time! Needless to say, the winds could continue to shi� , leaving it virtually impossible to predict.

Until next week.

Boaters can enjoy a safe season on the water in Illinois this summer if boat operators are sober and all boaters and boat passen-gers wear life jackets. Illinois Conservation Police o� cers, who patrol water-ways throughout the state, are reminding boaters of safety laws and regulations leading up to National Safe Boating Week, May 21-27.

“We encourage safe boating throughout the year in Illinois, and re-minders about life jackets and sober boating are par-ticularly important heading into the busiest season of the year on the water,” said Illinois Conservation Police Chief Rafael Gutierrez. “Like fastening a seat belt in your car or truck, fasten-ing a life jacket can save your life; and, staying sober while operating a boat is the law in Illinois.”

Statistics compiled by the IDNR Office of Law Enforcement show that there were 74 boating-re-lated accidents on Illinois waters in 2015 resulting in 49 injuries and 14 fatalities. During the last � ve years, Illinois had an annual average of 84 boating ac-cidents resulting in 58 in-juries and 18 fatalities. (Annual boating accident

statistics are compiled based on the Federal Fiscal Year of October 1 through September 30).

Illinois Conservation Police o� cers (CPOs) in 2015 made 179 arrests for boaters operating under the influence (OUI), a 12.5 percent increase in OUI arrests from 2014.

IDNR statistics indicate six of the 14 boating-relat-ed fatalities in Illinois last year involved alcohol or drug impairment, while 13 of the 14 people who died in boating accidents may have survived if they had worn a life jacket or other personal � otation device (PFD).

Illinois law requires that PFDs – life jackets or life vests – be available for each person aboard a boat or other watercra� . State law also requires that anyone under the age of 13 must wear a life jacket while aboard any watercraft under 26 feet in length at all times the boat is under-way, unless they are below deck in an enclosed cabin or operating on private property. Illinois law also requires persons of any age to wear a PFD while oper-ating a personal watercra� or Jet Ski.

The IDNR offers free

boating safety courses pro-viding a review of boating laws and regulations and instruction on safe and at-tentive operation of water-cra� . � e IDNR encour-ages boaters of all ages to take a safety course. Anyone born on or a� er January 1, 1998 must pass a course and have a valid Boating Safety Certi� cate to operate a motorboat (with over 10 horsepower); and, state law requires boating safety education for persons ages 12 to 17 to operate a motorboat.

� e free safety courses taught by volunteer in-structors are available throughout Illinois, and schedules are available by checking the IDNR web-site’s boating information page at http://www.dnr.il-linois.gov/safety/Pages/BoatingSafety.aspx

For a fee, online boating safety courses are also available.

National Safe Boating Week is observed each year during the week leading up to the Memorial Day holiday weekend. For more information on the na-tional safe boating cam-paign, go to the website at www.safeboatingcampaign.com.

“� is was our � rst time

holding our Girl Scout golf classic at Sunset Hills Country Club,” said Jill Gobert, GSSI Director of Development. “What a nice course and our players had a great time. On behalf of our 13,000 girl members and 4,500 adult volunteers I would like to thank our corporate sponsors, donors,

supporters and players for another successful golf classic,” Gobert added.

During the past 27 years, the Girl Scout golf classic has raised more than $828,000 to support girl program development, girl � nancial assistance and to maintain and improve Girl Scout camps.

ST. LOUIS CARDINALS 2016 SCHEDULE

Traditionally, on Memo-rial Day we honor those who have made the ulti-mate sacrifice for our nation. Social Security re-spects the heroism and courage of our military service members, and we remember those who have given their lives in defense of freedom.

� e unexpected loss of a service member is a di� -cult experience for the family. Social Security helps by providing bene� ts to protect service members’ dependents. Widows, wid-owers, and their dependent children may be eligible for Social Security survivors benefits. You can learn more about Social Security survivors bene� ts at www.socialsecurity.gov/survi-vors.

It’s also important to recognize those service members who are still with us, especially those who have been wounded. Just as they served us, we have the obligation to serve them. Social Security has bene� ts to protect veterans when an injury prevents them from returning to active duty.

Wounded mil itar y service members can also receive expedited process-ing of their disability claims. For example, Social Security will provide expe-dited processing of disabil-ity claims � led by veterans who have a U.S. Depart-ment of Veterans A� airs (VA) Compensation rating of 100 percent Permanent & Total (P&T). Depending on the situation, some family members of military personnel, including de-pendent children and, in some cases, spouses, may be eligible to receive ben-e� ts. You can get answers to commonly asked ques-tions and � nd useful infor-mation about the applica-tion process at www.socialsecurity.gov/wound-edwarriors.

Service members can also receive Social Security in addition to military re-tirement bene� ts. � e good news is that your military retirement bene� t does not reduce your Social Secu-rity retirement benefit. Learn more about Social Security retirement bene� ts

at www.socialsecurity.gov/retirement. You may also want to visit the Military Service page of our Retire-ment Planner, available at www.socialsecurity.gov/retire2/veterans.htm.

Service members are also eligible for Medicare at age 65. If you have health insurance from the VA or under the TRICARE or CHAMPVA programs, your health bene� ts may change, or end, when you become eligible for Medi-care. Learn more about Medicare bene� ts at www.socialsecurity.gov/medi-care.

In acknowledgment of those who died for our country, those who served, and those who serve today, we at Social Security honor and thank you.

Question:I was wounded while on

military service overseas. What are the bene� ts for wounded warriors, and how can I apply?

Answer:� rough the Wounded

Warrior program, Social Security expedites process-ing of disability claims of current military service members or veterans dis-abled while on active duty on or a� er October 1, 2001. Also, service members and veterans who have a Veter-ans Administration com-pensation rating of 100% Permanent and Total (P&T) may receive expe-dited processing of applica-tions for Social Security disability bene� ts. Keep in mind, this expedited process applies to only the application process. To be eligible for benefits, you must meet Social Security’s strict de� nition of “disabil-ity,” which means:

• You must be unable to do substantial work because o f y o u r m e d i c a l condition(s); and

• Yo u r m e d i c a l condition(s) must have lasted, or be expected to last, at least one year or to result in death.

You can apply online at www.socialsecurity.gov/applyfordisability or call our toll-free number, 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778).

With several area veter-ans in attendance, Purple Heart recipients Jim Murphy and Michael Draege cut the purple ribbon for the newly painted and reserved purple parking space at Buchheit in Centralia.

� e reserved space for combat wounded was � rst i n t r o d u c e d a t t h e Jacksonville Buchheit store, an idea by their assistant manager Robert Ayres, a

retired veteran. According to Centralia Buchheit M a n a g e r J o h n Hendrickson, "All eight Buchheit stores plus our distribution center, main o� ce, feed mill and truck-ing division will have des-ignated combat wounded parking spaces. Buchheit feels this is another great way to recognize and honor our veterans who have given so much."

Chicken From Around � e World (Part 1)Americans aren't the only people whose favorite meat is chicken. From Japan to Mexico you will

� nd an array of delicious and healthy dishes. � is week's and next week's columns will focus on some of my tried and true dishes.

Japanese Boiled ChickenSESAME SAUCE:1 cup sesame seeds 1/2 cup heavy cream or sour cream1/2 cup Asian-style sesame oil 3/4 cup lightly seasoned homemade1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce chicken stock, or 6 T. each canned2 T. Japanese rice vinegar or freshly low-sodium broth and water squeezed lemon juice

2 quarts lightly seasoned homemade 1 small Napa or other Asian-type cabbage chicken stock, or 5 cups canned low-sodium (about 1½ lbs.), leaves separated broth and 3 cups water 1 bunch spinach (about 1 lb.), trimmed4 boned and skinned chicken breast halves, 1 lb. � rm tofu, cut into 1/2" dice (optional) cut into bite-sized pieces 4 to 6 oz. fresh enoki mushrooms (slender2 or 3 medium-sized carrots, sliced Japanese white mushrooms; optional) on the diagonal 2 to 3 cups hot steamed short-grain6 green onions, sliced on the diagonal brown or white rice into 2" pieces

To make sauce, place sesame seeds in heavy pan over medium-high heat and toast, stirring fre-quently, until golden. Remove from heat and pour onto plate to cool. Combine cooled sesame seeds and sesame oil in blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Add soy sauce, vinegar or lemon juice, cream, and stock, and blend until well mixed. Reserve. Pour chicken stock into large pan and place over medium heat. Bring to boil. Add chicken, reduce heat to simmer, and cook until chicken is tender but still moist, about 6 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon and reserve. Add vegetables to simmering stock one type at a time. Cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon before adding the next vegetable. Reserve each vegetable in a di� erent bowl. Cook tofu in the same way until heated through and reserve. To serve, pour reserved sesame sauce into 6 individual sauce bowls and place alongside a small bowl of rice at each place setting. Serve the chicken, each vegetable, and the tofu in separate communal bowls, allowing diners to make selections. Eat the chicken, vegetables, and tofu with chopsticks, dipping each bite into the sesame sauce. A� er eating the chicken and vegetables, ladle some of the hot broth into 6 individual bowls. Add a bit of le� over sauce to the broth and drink the soup. Alternatively, combine the chicken, vegetables, and tofu in the broth and ladle the mixture into individual bowls.

To make curry paste, combine chilies, shallots, garlic, galangal or ginger, lemon grass or zest, and lime zest in food processor or blender and chop until well mixed.

To make chicken curry, heat 2 T. vegetable oil in skillet or saucepan over medium heat, add chicken, and saute until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Remove chicken with slotted spoon and reserve.

Serves 6 to 8 as part of a � ai dinner, or 4 as a main course.

There are not enough words to thank the men and women who are serving and have served in the armed forces. We cannot express how much

gratitude we give for the suffering and sorrow of those who lost their loved ones. Those brave men and women gave the most precious gift God gave

us, “life”. The brave men and women served in our armed forces without question, complaint or regard to their own issues, every day to give us our

rights and freedoms. As time passes, we hope everyone will remember those who are still standing and remember our fallen to

honor and pay tribute to all who served in the armed forces.

May God Bless Every One of You.

A SPECIAL THANK YOU Memorial Day 2016

Though many people are quick to refer to Me-morial Day as the uno� -cial beginning of summer, the day is much more than that. Initially known as Decoration Day, Memo-rial Day is a day to remem-b er t hos e mi l i t ar y members who died in service of the country.

� e origins of Memo-rial Day remain a topic of debate. In 1966, President Lyndon Johnson declared Waterloo, N.Y. as the of-� cial birthplace of Memo-rial Day. However, the roots of Memorial Day likely run much deeper, as researchers at Duke Uni-versity note that during the Civil War, organized women's groups in the south had begun to deco-rate the graves of fallen soldiers.

Memorial Day as we know it today can likely be traced to Charleston, S.C., where teachers, missionar-ies and some members of the press gathered on May 1, 1865 to honor fallen soldiers. During the Civil War, captured Union sol-

diers were held at the Charleston Race Course and hundreds died during captivity. Upon their deaths, soldiers were buried in unmarked graves. When the Civil War ended, the May Day gathering was organized as a memorial to all the men who had died during captivity. The burial ground was landscaped, and those freed as a result of the Civil War played an integral role in the event at the Charleston Race Course.

While the event in Charleston might have been the � rst Memorial Day-type celebration in the southern United States, General John A. Logan is often cited as inspiring similar events in the north. As commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, a veterans' orga-nization for men who served in the Civil War, General Logan issued a proclamation just � ve days a� er the Charleston event that called for Decoration Day to be observed annu-

ally across the country. Logan preferred the event not be held on the anni-versary of any particular battle, and thus the day was observed for the � rst time on May 30. Celebrat-ing the day in May also was signi� cant to event orga-nizers because May is a month when � owers are in bloom, making it easier for observers of the holiday to place � owers on the graves of fallen soldiers.

In 1868, events were held at more than 180 cemeteries in 27 states, and those f igures nearly doubled in 1869. By 1890, every northern state o� -cially recognized Decora-tion Day as a state holiday. But southern states honored their dead on a different day until after World War I, when the holiday was changed to recognize Americans who died in any war and not just the Civil War. Nearly every state now celebrates Memorial Day, a name for the holiday � rst used in 1882, on the last Monday in May.

THE HISTORY OF MEMORIAL DAY


Men and women serving in the military make con-siderable sacrifices in defense of the United States and its citizens. Such sacri-� ces can easily be taken for granted by those with no friends or family members serving in the military, but it's important for all Amer-icans to recognize the e� orts of both active and veteran servicemen and women.

Honoring active military members and veterans does not have to be an elaborate undertaking. Ser vice members and their families o� en cherish even the sim-plest of gestures, and the following are a handful of ways grateful men and women can show their ap-preciation to active and retired members of the military.

* Help a neighbor who's on active duty. Active duty service members can be away from their families for long periods of time, and their absence can make things difficult for their families. Spouses of de-ployed service members are typically le� to manage a household on their own for months at a time. Neighbors can show their appreciation by helping with some chores around the house. O� er to mow a neighbor's lawn or drive a neighbor's kids to school. Such gestures might seem small, but they can go a long way toward alleviat-ing some of the stress that spouses of deployed service members deal with on a daily basis.

* Support the Wounded Warrior Project. Many service members sustain physical injuries while de-ployed. The Wounded Warrior Project works to raise awareness and enlist the public's help to address the needs of injured service members. Men and women who want to show their ap-preciation to injured service members can work with the Wounded Warrior Project

by volunteering at project-sponsored events or hosting fundraising events such as golf tournaments or com-munity picnics. More infor-mation about working with the Wounded

Warrior Project is avail-able at www.wounded-warriorproject.org.

* Write a letter of appre-ciation. One of the simplest ways to show your support for service members is to write them a letter express-ing that appreciation. If a friends, relatives or neigh-bors are active service members or veterans, sit down and write a letter telling them how much you appreciate their sacri� ce in service of their country, and encourage youngsters to do the same. If you don't know any members of the mili-tary, you can work with A Million � anks (www.amil-lionthanks.org), a year-round campaign that en-courages Americans to write letters or emails or send cards or prayers to U.S. military personnel, past and present to thank them for their sacri� ces, dedication and service.

* Exercise your right to vote. One of the best ways to honor servicemen and women is to avoid taking the rights they so bravely

defend for granted. Members of the military routinely put their lives on the line so Americans can enjoy freedoms that many people across the globe cannot. Voting is one such freedom, so Americans should make it a point to vote every ElectionDay and teach their kids about the responsibility each Ameri-

can has to vote and take an interest in their govern-ment. Speak with active and veteran members of the mil itar y about their thoughts on proposed leg-islation and their opinions on how to improve that legislation, taking those opinions into consideration before casting your vote.

World War II veterans are truly a dying breed. Accord-ing to the Veterans Adminis-tration, approximately 492 World War II veterans die every day.

Unfortunately, with these men and women die the stories and accounts that have never been written down, captured on � lm or told to grandchildren. As a result, World War II and the “great-est generation” that lived it, will soon seem as distant to today's young people as the Civil War is to my generation. But to those lives it has touched, directly or indi-rectly through loved ones, it will remain as large as life.

My grandfather, Jerry Pinkowski, (1915-1993) was 26 years old when America entered World War II. He was considered 'un� t for service' due to a childhood injury to his arm that healed incor-rectly. But with the Army’s need for personnel being what it was at the time, they accepted him along with many other “limited” service men. He served as a mechan-ic in the 347th Ordnance Depot Company which was eventually attached to General George S. Patton’s famous Third Army. Al-though Grandpa got the “express tour” of Europe while chasing a� er Patton’s racing armored columns, he still found time to take pho-tographs. Lots of them! Un-fortunately, it was only through these photos that I was able to learn much of the details of my Grandpa’s service during the war. Like many World War II veterans he was pretty closed-lipped about his experiences in the war, and my family really

wasn’t aware of the treasure trove of photograph negatives he had stashed away until a� er he lost his battle with cancer in 1993. I regretted not � nding out more about the places he'd been, the things he'd seen, and the people he knew. I had missed the golden opportunity to hear my grandpa’s � rst-hand ac-counts, but the one thousand photographs that he left behind told a story all their own.

O v e r t h e y e a r s I have enjoyed studying his photograph collection. Casu-ally at � rst, then later becom-ing more and more serious about unravelling the myster-ies contained on the celluloid. The photos’ subjects are varied and range from ordi-nary everyday scenes of him and his comrades working, to 13th century gothic cathe-drals surrounded by crum-bling ruins.

In 2000 I published some of them on a website called Lost Images Of World War II, inviting visitors to o� er their identi� cations and observa-tions about the photos. � at project springboarded me into more extensive research where I’ve been able to retrace Grandpa’s tracks across Europe, and also talk with the very few surviving members of his unit that I could � nd.

In August of 2011, I launched a new, more de-tailed website which features several hundreds of Grand-pa's photos along with sum-maries, analyses and modern day photo comparisons. � e new website can be seen at www.lostimagesofww2.com

We Salute

All Veterans.

As you may know, I spent five and one half years as a prisoner of war during the Vietnam War. In the early years of our imprisonment, the NVA kept us in solitary con-finement or two or three to a cell. In 1971 the NVA moved us from these con-ditions of isolation into large rooms with as many as 30 to 40 men to a room. This was, as you can imag-ine, a wonderful change and was a direct result of the efforts of millions of Americans on behalf of a few hundred POWs 10,000 miles from home.

One of the men who moved into my room was a young man named Mike Christian. Mike came from a small town near Selma, Alabama. He didn't wear a pair of shoes until he was 13 years old.

At 17, he enlisted in the US Navy. He later earned a commission by going to Officer Training School. Then he became

a Naval Flight Officer and was shot down and cap-tured in 1967.

Mike had a keen and deep appreciation of the opportunities this country, and our military, provide for people who want to work and want to succeed. As part of the change in treatment, the Vietnamese allowed some prisoners to receive packages from home. In some of these packages were handker-chiefs, scarves and other items of clothing. Mike got himself a bamboo needle.

Over a period of a couple of months, he cre-ated an American flag and sewed it on the inside of his shirt. Every afternoon, before we had a bowl of soup, we would hang Mike's shirt on the wall of the cell and say the Pledge of Allegiance. I know the Pledge of Allegiance may not seem the most impor-tant part of our day now, but I can assure you that in that stark cell, it was

indeed the most important and meaningful event.

One day the Vietnamese searched our cell, as they did peri-odically, and discovered Mike's shirt with the flag sewn inside, and removed it. That evening they returned, opened the door of the cell, and for the benefit of all us, beat Mike Christian severely for the next couple of hours.

Then, they opened the door of the cell and threw him in. We cleaned him up as well as we could. The cell in which we lived had a concrete slab in the middle on which we slept. Four naked light bulbs hung in each corner of the room. As I said, we tried to clean up Mike as well as we could. After the excite-ment died down, I looked in the corner of the room, and sitting there beneath that dim light bulb with a piece of red cloth, another shirt and his bamboo nee-dle, was my friend, Mike

Christian. He was sitting there with his eyes almost shut from the beating he had received, making another American flag.

He was not making the flag because it made Mike Christian feel bet-ter. He was making that flag because he knew how important it was to us to be able to pledge our allegiance to our flag and country.

So the next time you say the Pledge of Allegiance, you must never forget the sacrifice and courage that thousands of Americans have made to build our nation and pro-mote freedom around the world.

You must remember our duty, our honor, and our country.

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic, for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with lib-erty and justice for all."

Happy Memorial Day from

In Flanders Fieldsby Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae

In Flanders elds the poppies blowBetween the crosses, row on row,� at mark our place; and in the sky� e larks, still bravely singing, � yScarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days agoWe lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,Loved and were loved, and now we lie,In Flanders elds.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:To you from failing hands we throw� e torch; be yours to hold it high.If ye break faith with us who dieWe shall not sleep, though poppies growIn Flanders elds.

More than 100 years ago in 1863, America was in the midst of the most painful time in our history — the Civil War. On the site of the bloody battle, on the outskirts of Colum-bus, Mississippi, a group of women walked among the fresh graves. They carried wild� owers to lay on the graves of their Con-federate soldiers who were buried there.

As they moved from one grave to another, they noticed another group of graves o� to one side. � ey were clearly the graves of Union soldiers who had died on the same � eld of battle. With little discus-sion, they began to lay their flowers on those graves as well.

� e healing of a nation began at that point. � e compassion of these

Southern ladies for those who died � ghting against their husbands, fathers and sons gave a clear message that, in death, all are equal. This small gesture was passed by word of mouth. Union and Confederate soldiers alike were touched by this simple act of honor.

A Union veterans orga-nization, called the Grand Army of the Republic, decided to designate a special day to honor the fallen from both sides. � e following order was issued:

“� e 30th day of May, 1868, is designated for the purpose of strewing with � owers or otherwise deco-rating the graves of com-rades who died in defense of their country during the late rebellion, and whose bodies now lie in almost every city, village and

hamlet churchyard in the land. � eir soldier lives were the reveil le of freedom to a race of chains and their deaths a tattoo (drumbeat) of rebellious tyranny in arms. We should guard their graves with sacred vigilance.”

New York was the � rst state to set aside this day for speci� c remembrance of those fallen in battle. In 1873, they passed a law designating May 30 as Decoration Day. In 1882, the holiday was adopted across the United States and renamed “Memorial Day.” In 1973, Memorial Day was o� cially estab-lished as the last Monday in May.

On Memorial Day, the sky will likely be clear and most of us will have the day off to enjoy a long weekend. All of us, even

the veterans, will have a tendency to enjoy the day without a thought to those who should be remem-bered.

� ese are the ones who never married their sweet-heart, never saw their chil-dren play, never went back to school or pursued their dream career. For them and the families they le� behind, we must pause during our picnics and gatherings. We must pause, if only for a moment, to remember their sacrifices. If they could speak they would likely say, “Make the most of your freedom and priv-ileges. We purchased them with our lives.”

I guess we owe them at least that much. I am sure they would ask for no more.

Reducing a Repeat of Bladder Stones

D E A R P A W ’ S CORNER: My 5-year-old shih-tzu cross, “Louie,” just had surgery to remove bladder stones. � ey were 90 percent calcium oxalate and 10 percent calcium phosphate. My vet has prescribed a strict diet of (expensive) food pur-chased only through their o� ce.

I am feeding Louie the special food from the vet, but I’m not certain this is the right choice. I found some online sites that rec-ommend a homemade diet of chicken, rice and peas. What would you recommend to prevent a recurrence of these stones? — Bev R., Melville, Saskatchewan, Canada

DEAR BEV: Ouch! I’m

sorry that Louie is going through this. It’s great that you’re doing all you can to prevent a recur-rence, including knowing the type of stones he has.

Louie’s bladder stones were determined to be calcium oxalate, which can form when a dog’s urine is acidic. � ere are two other common types of bladder stones that dogs can suffer from: struvite, formed in alka-line urine; and urate, seen o� en in dogs with liver disease.

� e issue with oxalate-type stones is that they generally must be surgi-cally removed. � at’s dif-ferent from struvite stones, which might be dissolved through medi-cation and diet. However, both types may be PREVENTED through a special diet. For more information, go to www.monicasegal.com/word-press/ and search for “bladder stones.” Her blog can give greater details about types of stones and appropriate

diets.Going into diet specif-

ics would take up more room than I have in this column. I can say that you need to make sure

Louie drinks plenty of water. From there, keep researching, and coordi-nate with your vet.

• It was 20th-century television, film and culture critic John Leonard who made the following sage observa-tion: "In the cellars of the night, when the mind starts moving around old trunks of bad times, the pain of this and the shame of that, the memory of a small bold-ness is a hand to hold."

a group of hedgehogs is known as a prickle.

• In almost every state, there is a statute on the books making it illegal to jump o� the top of an o f f i c e b u i l d i n g . Unsurprisingly, there's not much call to prose-cute those who violate the law; district attorneys aren't in the habit of filing charges against corpses. However, in a few states, if you survive

jumping o� a building and are tried and con-victed of violating that law, you could be sen-tenced to death.

"Horton Hears a Who" and "Green Eggs and Ham," among many others. You might not realize, though, that his � rst book, "And to � ink � at I Saw It on Mulberry Street," was rejected by more than two dozen publishers before it � nally made it into print.
