DAY 1468 NOVEMBER 11…TRUNK LOAD OF BLESSINGS!
AMERICAN MINUTE…VETERANS DAY: On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918, World War One ended. Though the “cease-fire,” called “Armistice,” was signed at 5:00am in the morning, it specified that 11:00 am would be the time the actual fighting would cease. Tragically, in the intervening six hours of fighting, an additional 11,000 more were killed.
Following World War One — “the war to end all wars” — President Warren Harding, in 1921, had the remains of an unknown soldier killed in France brought to Arlington Cemetery to be buried in the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Inscribed on the Tomb are the words: “Here rests in honored glory an American soldier known but to God.” On October 4, 1924, President Calvin Coolidge stated at the dedication of the Monument to the American Expeditionary Forces:
“They did not regard it as a national or personal opportunity for gain or fame or glory, but as a call to sacrifice for the support of humane principles and spiritual ideals …If anyone doubts the sacrifices which they have been willing to make in behalf of … what they believe to be the welfare of other nations, let them gaze upon this monument and other like memorials that have been reared in every quarter of our broad land. Let them look upon the representative gatherings of our VETERANS, and let them remember that America has dedicated itself to the service of God and man.”
In 1926, President Coolidge began issuing proclamations honoring veterans every year, and in 1938 the day became a legal holiday. In 1954, the name “Armistice Day” was changed to “Veterans Day” to honor all soldiers of all American wars. Four million Americans served in World War One. Sixteen million served in World War Two. Nearly seven million served in the Korean War. Nearly nine million served in the Vietnam War. From the First Gulf War till the present, 7.4 million men and women served. While Veterans Day honored the living soldiers, Memorial Day honored those who died while serving.
General Douglas MacArthur told West Point cadets, May 1962: “The soldier, above all other men, is required to practice the greatest act of religious training — sacrifice. In battle and in the face of danger and death, he discloses those Divine attributes which his Maker gave when He created man in His own image …
No physical courage and no brute instinct can take the place of Divine help which alone can sustain him. However horrible the incidents of war may be, the soldier who is called upon to offer and to give his life for his country is the noblest development of mankind.”
In 1958, President Eisenhower placed a soldier in the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier from World War Two, and another soldier from the Korean War. In 1968, Lyndon Johnson signed The Uniform Holiday Bill which moved Veterans Day to Monday to create a three day weekend for federal employees. In 1984, President Ronald Reagan placed a soldier from the Vietnam War in the Tomb of the Unknown. DNA test later identified the body as that of pilot Michael Blassie, who was flying an A-37B Dragonfly when he was shot down near An Loc, South Vietnam.
In 1998, the body of Michael Blassie was reburied at Jefferson Memorial Cemetery in St. Louis, Missouri. Michael Blassie was a graduate of the U.S. Air Force Academy in 1970, and before that, a graduate of St. Louis University High School in 1966, the same High School that the author of this article graduated from ten years after him. On Veterans Day, November 11, 1921, President Warren G. Harding stated: “On the threshold of eternity, many a soldier, I can well believe, wondered how his ebbing blood would color the stream of human life, flowing on after his sacrifice …Standing today on hallowed ground … it is fitting to say that his sacrifice, and that of the millions dead, shall not be in vain … I can sense the prayers of our people, of all peoples, that this Armistice Day shall mark the beginning of a new and lasting era of peace on earth, goodwill among men.

WHY PLANES STALL AND CRASH
ASTRONOMY – The Big Bang is a totally inadequate theory of origins because of its apparently irreconcilable problems. These difficulties are seldom talked about in popular literature on the subject. Instead, the Big Bang is presented as a fact. The following are just a few of the many major problems with The Big Bang Theory: 1. Missing Origin – where did the energy originate? 2. Missing Fuse – what ignites the Big Bang? 3. Missing Star Formation – no mechanism has been suggested to adequately explain how the planets, stars, and galaxies formed. 4. Missing Time – most dating methods show that the earth, stars, galaxies, and solar systems are young, and many methods indicate an age less than 10,000 years. 5. Missing Life – in an evolving universe, life should have developed in many different places apart from earth. Where is everybody else?
How can science speak about origins with such authority with so much that man does not understand nor can explain?
“Do you know the laws of the heavens? Can you set up God’s dominion over the earth?” (Job 38:33)
