CM Feedback: Patriotic Knifley: Being 4F diminished you

Uncle Jodie was "stone blind," but memorized eye chart to qualify for combat

By Richard Hovious

Hitler just THOUGHT he had problems at Stalingrad. He's fortunate he didn't invade Knifley---the war would have shortened considerably!!

I distinctly remember most everyone from 18 to 35 waving a paper proudly yelling "GREETINGS" (the salutation on draft notices).

Rev. Joey N. Welsh. May 28, 2006. Memorial Day


ANOTHER ANGLE: the occasional musings of a Kentucky pastor
Ebenezers for our Age, During a Weekend of Remembrance
By The Rev. Joey N. Welsh
joey_e_welsh@hotmail.com

Verse two of the hymn, "Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing," begins with a biblical citation: O' Here I raise mine Ebenezer; hither by thy help I'm come. The Ebenezer of the song is a biblical site referenced in I Samuel 7. The Bible story there describes how Samuel leads the Israelites in sacrifice and prayer for God's help as the forces of the Philistines bear down upon them. God frightens the Philistines into disarray with a barrage of divine thunder; the panicky Philistines are then routed and utterly defeated by the Israelites.
