The Measure of a Country

In case we find ourselves starting to believe all the anti-American sentiment and negativity about our government and its policies, we should remember Tony Blair's words to his own people.

During a recent interview Prime Minister Tony Blair of Great Britain was quoted giving the following answer to one his parliament members as to why he believes so much in America and its President. And does he think they are on the right track?

Blair's reply — "A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at ... how many want in ... and how many want to get out."

Remember this too:

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:


1. Jesus Christ


2. The American G. I.


One died for your soul,


the other for your freedom.

              

To raise an American Flag to half Staff


First attach the flag to the halyard and raise the flag all the way to the top. It helps to take the same size strokes, pulls, each time you pull with one hand and then the other, and count these pulls. Once the flag has reached the top wait at least sixty seconds then lower the flag half way back down.  Divide the number of pulls up by two and that gives you the number of pulls to lower the flag back to half staff.  By far the best way to make sure the flag is at the proper height pre-mark the halyard at the half way point using the tie-off as the mark.  When lowering the flag.  First raise the flag back to the top.  Permit the flag to remain there for at least sixty seconds then lower as normal.  Fold and store the flag, do not let the flag touch the ground.
