Our sincere condolences to the family and friends of CW4 James Carter,Thanks for being one of our heroes. God Bless. And God Bless, The fellow soldiers that stands for us everyday.Thank you for your dedicated service and sacrifice to defend this great nation of ours.
We salute you , My Friend
Final Inspection
The soldier stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining.
Just as brightly as his brass.
"Step forward now,soldier.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
The soldier squared his shoulders and said,
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't.
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough.
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep....
Though I worked a lot of overtime.
When the bills just got too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God, forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place,
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here, Lord.
It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don’t, I’ll understand.
There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod.
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now,soldier
you’ve borne your burdens well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven’s streets;
you’ve done your time in Hell."

The first part of the mission is now complete. 70 Patriots gathered on the west side of Montgomery for the trip unto Maxwell AFB. At the staging area we were joined by all of the HEROES family, and duing the ride briefing the prayer was shared between the PGR and his family. All of us held hands as Marti Kiewel prayed for us all.
The PGR stood proud today as the family received their loved one, and escorted him through the same streets this HERO used to roam as a child.
We now wait till Tuesday to once gain stand proud for this great American HERO..... |

First to all the fathers who came out to escort CW4 Carter this morning Thank you and Happy Fathers day to each one of you. This should have been a time that you spent with your own families but you made the chose to spend Honoring this man and His' family.
Second and most important was seeing looks on the family and extended family as we came to show our support and honor another Hero. I know that with all the changes that kept happening up to the very end of this part of the mission, things were not happening because we were there it was because He was directing from on high. May every thing we as PGR members do honor and bless the family of CW4 Carter.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

As I retrace the route I again will be blessed the the wings that touched me and brought the breeze I needed will be there again, as CW4 Carter has now recieved his Heavenly wings. |
