I didnt serve either. Right out of high school i went to work for Northrop Aircraft Div and ended up in the B-2 Div.

Both my sons and daughter in law are at Ft Bragg and my oldest daughter is out of Ft Mead MD. My wife was USAF.

Is Lance Cpl Warren your son?

The soldier stood and faced his God Which must always come to pass...
He hoped his shoes were shining Just as brightly as his brass.

"Step forward now, you 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 streets are awfully tough.

But, I never took a penny That wasn't mine to keep...
Though I worked a lot of overtime When the bills got just 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 you soldier,
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."

My usual wood is hickory but i want to try something new. How about maple, mesquite, alder or pecan?

I've used maple on my venison jerky and it was good!
Have you posted this venison snack stix recipe before Nepas? Hint, hint ;)

Its ok, the loss of any member in war time is tragic.

I use collagen for stix and hog or sheep for other sausages.

Cabelas has a couple of nice inexpensive grinders.
